Ryan Edward Watkins (born 9 June 1983) is a Welsh cricketer. He played for Glamorgan as a left-handed batsman and a right-arm medium-pace bowler.[1]

As a teenager, he captained Gwent and Wales before signing a development contract with the Welsh County side.

Watkins made his debut in 2005 and contributed with both the bat and the ball during 2006, when he was consistently in the first XI.

In 2009, he became the first Glamorgan to take five wickets in a Twenty20 match when recording figures of 5/16 against Gloucestershire, but was released by the club at the end of that season.[2]

After his cricket career, he worked as a policeman.[2]
