Rice Price (born 3 January 1807 at Wroughton, Wiltshire; died 30 November 1845 at Oxford) was an English cricketer with amateur status. He was associated with Oxford University and made his first-class debut in 1827.[1]

Price was educated at Winchester College and New College, Oxford, where he matriculated on 21 January 1826 and on 26 January became a "Founder's-kin Fellow".[2] He remained at New College for the rest of his life: after graduating he became a Church of England priest and was dean of arts in 1834, bursar in 1835 and dean of divinity from 1836.[3] He died at New College.[4] His name "Rice" is an anglicised version of Welsh Rhys.
