William Kenneth Harbinson (11 July 1906 7 November 2000) was an Irish-born English cricketer (born in Larne) who played 14 first-class matches for Cambridge University in the late 1920s.

Harbinson was the first man to score a hundred in each innings of a match for Cambridge.[1] Against Glamorgan at Fenner's in 1929, from number two in the order he struck 130 in the first innings and 109 not out in the second.[2] His unbroken stand of 331 for the second wicket with Tom Killick (200*) remains as of March 2009 Cambridge's highest partnership against Glamorgan for any wicket.[3]
