Henry Frederick (Harry) Boyle (10 December 1847 in Sydney - November 21, 1907 in Bendigo, Victoria) was an Australian cricketer.
Boyle toured England in the very early Anglo-Australian cricket matches in 1878, 1880 and 1882, as well as playing in the Australian fixtures of the period including the first Test at the MCG in 1877. He played in the match at the SCG in 1879 which turned into a riot.
He was an accomplished bowler, but was often overshadowed by "The Demon Bowler" Fred Spofforth.
