Cameron John Boyce (born 27 July 1989) is an Australian cricketer. Boyce is a leg spin bowler who plays for the Hobart Hurricanes and Queensland in Australian domestic cricket. He was born in the western Queensland town of Charleville.[1]

Boyce made his debut for Queensland against Western Australia at the Gabba in March 2010.[2] The following week he played in the season's Sheffield Shield Final. Queensland lost, but Boyce took six wickets in Victoria's second innings. After being selected for the Australian Chairman's XI team for a match against the visiting Indians in Canberra in 2011, former Test spinner Ashley Mallett claimed that Boyce was the best leg spinner he had seen in first class cricket since Shane Warne, saying Boyce had "definitely got the potential to play Test cricket."[3]

He made his Twenty20 International (T20I) debut for Australia against Pakistan in the United Arab Emirates in October 2014. He took two wickets for ten runs, in a low-scoring game.[4]

Boyce played in the T20I match between England and Australia in Cardiff on 31 August 2015. He flew in from Brisbane for the one-off match, where he bowled one over and was not required to bat.[5]
