Richard Clive Hughes (born 30 September 1926 in Watford, Hertfordshire) is a former English cricketer who played 11 first-class games for Worcestershire in the early 1950s. He was educated at Watford Grammar School for Boys.[cite book | last = Webber | first = Roy | title = Who's Who in World Cricket | publisher = Hodder & Stoughton | date = 1952 | location = London] ]Hughes made his first-class debut for Worcestershire against the Combined Services at New Road in May 1950; in the second innings he took 3-38, which was to remain his career best innings return. His victims were Wilfred Payton, Anthony Thackara and Michael Ainsworth, the last-named being a capped Worcestershire player himself. Hughes played no other first-class cricket in 1950, although he did appear several times for the county's Second XI in the Minor Counties Championship.
The 1951 season saw Hughes play ten more games for Worcestershire, but with limited success: his 12 wickets cost him over 53 runs apiece, while in nine innings he scored a mere 43 runs, almost half of them courtesy of the career-best 21 he made against Surrey in June. His last game was against Somerset at the end of August, in which his only wicket was that of Edward Lester.
