Ronald Wilfred Coventry (born 29 May 1928) is a former cricketer who played first-class cricket for Rhodesia from 1953 to 1958.

Coventry was an all-rounder, who batted at various positions in the order and often opened the bowling. He wore spectacles while playing. He made his first-class debut against the touring New Zealanders in 1953-54.[1] In the second innings he made a quick 63, including 24 off one over from John Reid, playing shots that Reid thought resembled tennis, rather than cricket, shots. "I didn't know where to bowl," Reid admitted.[2]

Coventry's best season was 1955-56, when he scored 213 runs for Rhodesia at an average of 30.42,[3] including his highest score of 94 against Orange Free State,[4] and took 16 wickets at 20.31.[5] Rhodesia won the Currie Cup B Section title, winning all six of their matches.

According to CricketArchive he is still alive as of December 2021, but according to Cricinfo he is "presumed dead".[6][7]
