Raymond Munds (28 December 1882 – 29 July 1962) was an English cricketer who played seven first-class cricket matches for Kent County Cricket Club in the early 20th century. Munds was a left-handed batsman who bowled right-arm slow. He was born at Lydd in Kent.

Munds played for the Kent First XI between 1902 and 1908. He played in three County Championship matches, three times against MCC and once against Cambridge University.[1] He made his debut for Kent in 1902 against MCC and played his final first-class match in 1908 against Cambridge University. He made a number of appearances for the Kent Second XI and MCC in non-first-class matches.[2][3] His Wisden obituary states that he played as a wicket-keeper but there is no evidence that he did so in first-class matches.[1][2]

He later stood as an umpire in three first-class fixtures and in nearly 50 Minor Counties Championship matches.[4][5] He died at Folkestone on 29 July 1962 aged 79. Munds' father was groundsman at Hythe Cricket Club for 47 years and his brother, Arthur, played one first-class match for Kent in 1896.[6]
