James Rice (dates unknown) was an English amateur cricketer during the Napoleonic Wars.
[1] He is not known to have been attached to any particular club although, as an amateur who played all his first-class games at Lord's Middle Ground, it is possible he was a member of Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), which was based at that venue.
The matches in which Rice appeared were the only first-class fixtures of the three seasons in question.
Cricket at this time had been badly impacted by a loss of both investment and manpower caused by the Napoleonic Wars.
