Richard Ernest Turner (4 May 1886 – 16 March 1967) was an English first-class cricketer who played 52 matches for Worcestershire either side of the First World War.
Turner made his debut against Kent at Amblecote on 5 July 1909; he scored 6 and 19 in an innings defeat.
[2] This included his only two half-centuries, which were achieved in successive matches: 53 against Sussex at the end of May,[4] then 66 versus Warwickshire a week later.
[2] A single match in 1913 was his last for eight years, and although he returned for eight more games spread over 1921 and 1922, he could muster only 200 runs from 16 innings,[2] with a highest score of 44 against Gloucestershire in June 1921; this was also the only occasion on which Turner acted as wicket-keeper.
[7] Of his four first-class wickets, three came in the same innings in July 1911, when he accounted for Kent's Jack Hubble, Bill Fairservice and Charlie Blythe to finish with 3–7.
