Edgar James Binney (31 May 1885 – 9 September 1978) was an Australian cricketer. He was a left-handed batsman and right-arm medium-fast bowler who played for Victoria.[1]

Binney was principally an opening bowler. He made a single first-class appearance for Victoria during the 1909–10 season, against Tasmania. He took no wickets for 72 from 30 six-ball overs and, batting at number eleven, he scored 29 runs in the only innings in which he batted, as Victoria won the match by an innings.[2]

Binney married Naomi Frances Proud in Melbourne in December 1917.[3] He worked as a commercial traveller. In 1931 was elected secretary of the Victorian branch of the Commercial Travellers' Association, and retired from the position in 1956.[4][5] At the time of his death in the Melbourne suburb of Brighton in 1978, aged 93, he was Victoria's oldest living first-class player.[6]
