Price (full name and dates of birth and death unknown) was an English cricketer. Price's batting and bowling styles are unknown. He appeared in scorecards as Captain Price, suggesting an army or naval connection.

Price made his first-class debut for Sussex against Kent at the Royal New Ground in 1828.[1] He was dismissed for 3 runs by William Ashby in Sussex's first-innings, while in their second-innings he was dismissed for a single run, though the bowler who his wicket is not recorded. The match was drawn.[2] His next first-class appearance came twelve years later for the Marylebone Cricket Club against Oxford University at Lord's in 1840. The following season he appeared for the Fast Bowlers (suggesting his bowling style was fast in nature) in a first-class match against the Slow Bowlers, while in 1842 he played his final first-class match for the Marylebone Cricket Club against Hampshire.[1] In his four first-class matches, Price scored 10 runs at an average of 1.66, with a high score of 6. With the ball, he took 2 wickets, both of which came for Marylebone Cricket Club, although his bowling average and best figures are unknown due to incomplete records.[3]
