Ole Henrik Mortensen (born 29 January 1958 in Vejle, Jutland) is a Danish former cricketer, probably the best his country has produced. A fast-medium right-arm bowler, in a first-class career with Derbyshire that ran from 1983 to 1994 he took 434 wickets at a good average of 23.88, as well as 219 at 25.14 in List A cricket.

For Denmark, Mortensen appeared in four ICC Trophy tournaments (1979, 1986, 1990 and 1994), claiming 63 wickets at a mere 10.41 apiece, including a return of 7-19 in a one-sided match against Israel (who were bowled out for 45) in Nairobi in 1994.

Mortensen earned the nickname Stan while playing for Derbyshire, a reference to the famous England football player of the 1940s and 50s, Stan Mortensen.
