Cyril Tamplin (born 27 May 1921) is a former Welsh cricketer. Tamplin was a right-handed batsman who played primarily as a wicketkeeper. He was born in Cardiff, Glamorgan.
Tamplin made his first-class status debut while on War Service in India for Bengal against Bihar in the 1942/43 Ranji Trophy at Eden Gardens, Calcutta.
Tamplin later returned to the United Kingdom and made his first-class debut for Glamorgan against the touring South Africans in 1947.
