Philip Keith Lee (born September 15, 1904, Gladstone, South Australia, died August 9, 1980, Woodville, South Australia) was an Australian cricketer who played in 2 Tests from 1931 to 1933.

Phil Lee was a hard-hitting right-handed batsman and a right-arm bowler of off breaks. He played several matches for South Australia from 1925-26, originally batting in middle order and bowling infrequently. From 1930, his off-break bowling developed and he was called into the Australian Test side for the second match of the rather one-sided series with South Africa at Sydney in 1931-32. With Clarrie Grimmett and Bert Ironmonger in the side, Lee had limited bowling and took only one wicket.

The emergence of Bill O'Reilly as a Test-class spin bowler later in the same series seemed likely to limit Lee's prospects for further Test caps, but the following season, 1932-33, he was recalled for the fifth match in the Bodyline series against England after Grimmett had lost form. In Australia's first innings, batting at No 8, he hit 42 out of a stand of 57 in 35 minutes with Bert Oldfield, and in England's first innings, though brought on to bowl after O'Reilly and Ironmonger, he was Australia's most successful bowler with four wickets for 111 runs. In the second innings, he was last out for 15 as Australia collapsed to Hedley Verity, and he failed to take a wicket as England won by eight wickets.

Though playing in two Test trial matches, Lee had a poor bowling season in 1933-34, and with Grimmett's return to form he was not picked for the tour of England in 1934. He played one further season for South Australia and then retired.

He was also a football and baseball player.
