Bertram Lennox Peel (19 April 1881 – 19 February 1945) was an English first-class cricketer.

The son of Edward Peel, he was born in Wavertree, Liverpool in April 1881.[1] He was educated at Bedford School, before going up to Hertford College, Oxford.[2] While at Oxford, he made his debut in first-class cricket for Oxford University against Somerset at Oxford in 1903, with Peel making four further first-class appearances for Oxford in 1907.[3] After graduating from Oxford, he became a schoolteacher, moving to Edinburgh shortly after graduating to teach. While in Scotland, he made five appearances for Scotland in first-class cricket between 1905–12.[3] In ten first-class matches, Peel scored a total of 288 runs at an average of 16.00 and a high score of 74 against the touring South Africans in 1907.[4][5] With his right-arm slow bowling, he took 10 wickets with best figures of 4 for 123.[4] In addition to playing first-class cricket, Peel also played minor counties cricket for Bedfordshire from 1900–14, making 56 appearances.[6] He died at Edinburgh in January 1945.
