Edward William Broad (30 April 1875 – 7 April 1913) was a New Zealand cricketer. Broad's batting style is unknown, though it is known he played as a wicket-keeper. He was born at Nelson, New Zealand.

Broad was educated at Nelson College from 1886 to 1892.[1] He made a single first-class appearance for Nelson against Wellington at Trafalgar Park in December 1891.[2] Broad ended Nelson's first-innings of 106 all out unbeaten on 0, while in Wellington's first-innings of 128 all out he took three catches. In Nelson's second-innings of 111 all out, he scored 13 runs before he was dismissed by William Ogier. In Wellington's one wicket victory, he also claimed a single catch in their second-innings chase.[3]

He died at Marton, Manawatu on 7 April 1913.
