Edward Lancelot Bunting (10 December 1883 - 26 February 1962) was an English cricketer who played a single first-class match in 1922, for Worcestershire against Yorkshire.
His brief experience of the first-class game was something of a disaster: Yorkshire, who would go on to the County Championship title, crushed their opponents by an innings and 220 runs inside two days, while Bunting himself made 1 and 0 with his four overs of leg-spin disappearing for 38 runs. At least he took a catch, to dismiss George Macaulay.
Bunting was born in Tillington, Staffordshire; he died in Barnwood, Gloucestershire aged 78.
