Gerald Harvey Humphries (8 December 1908 - 3 February 1983) was an English cricketer who played two first-class matches for Worcestershire in the 1930s. He made 26 and 4 in the first game against Sussex, while in the second two years later he hit 36 in his only innings.

He captained Kidderminster Cricket Club either side of the Second World War, and was a member of the Worcestershire committee."Obituaries in 1984." "sic" Wisden Cricketers' Almanack 1985.]
