Desmond James Murphy (6 July 1896 – 30 January 1982) was an Irish first-class cricketer.

Born at Armagh, Murphy was educated at Clongowes Wood College in County Kildare.[1] Following World War I, Murphy attended University College Dublin, where he played club cricket for the university cricket team.[1] He later played for Pembroke Cricket Club,[1] and made one appearance in first-class cricket for Ireland against Scotland at Edinburgh in 1920.[2][3] Batting twice during the match, Murphy was dismissed in Ireland's first-innings without scoring by Arthur Sellers, while in their second-innings he was dismissed for the same score by Gerard Crole. He bowled thirteen overs of his leg break googly, but went wicket-less.[4] He later became the headmaster of St Gerard's School, Bray.[1] He died at Cabinteely in January 1982.[1]
