Edwin Freame Odell (2 December 1883 – 11 March 1960) was an English cricketer. Odell was a left-handed batsman who bowled left-arm medium pace. He was born at Leicester, Leicestershire.

Odell made a single first-class appearance for Leicestershire against Northamptonshire in the 1912 County Championship at Aylestone Road, Leicester.[1] In Leicestershire's first-innings of 96 all out, Odell was dismissed for a duck by Sydney Smith. In Northamptonshire's first-innings of 211/8 declared, Odell took the wickets of William East and Smith, finishing with figures of 2/42 from fourteen overs. Leicestershire reached 98/6 in their second-innings, with Odell not called upon to bat and the match ending as a draw.[2]

He died at Northfield, Warwickshire on 11 March 1960. His brother William Odell also played first-class cricket. William was killed in action during the First World War.
