Charles Lawrence (16 December 1828 – 20 December 1916) was an English cricketer, who played for Scotland, Ireland, Surrey and England.

After the touring with the England side of 1861–62, he settled in Australia, where he became captain-coach for New South Wales, and then captain-coach of the Aboriginal cricket team that toured England in 1868, the first ever tour of England by an Australian team.[1]
