Harry Gurney (born 25 October 1986) is an English cricket player. He will play for Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club in the 2012 season after leaving Leicestershire County Cricket Club at the end of the 2011 season. He primarily plays as a left-arm seamer.

He had relative success in Leicestershire's second team and made his first team debut in the 2007 season.

Gurney has also played for Loughborough Town CC and the Bradford Leeds UCCE,[1] for whom he has taken the wicket of ex-England Test Captain Michael Vaughan.[2]

Gurney proved adept particularly in Twenty 20 matches, taking 23 victims during Leicestershire's title winning campaign, although he missed out on Finals Day due to injury. He was though, part of the Foxes squad in the 2011 Champions League Twenty20 which took place in India.

On 31 August 2011 it was announced that Gurney will be joining Nottinghamshire on a 3 year contract, after turning down a contract with Leicestershire.[3]
