William Robinson (24 November 1863 21 March 1928) was a New Zealand cricketer. He played 12 first-class matches for Auckland between 1902 and 1913.[1][2]

He was Auckland's regular wicketkeeper in home matches from 1906 to 1913. Only one of his 12 first-class matches was not played in Auckland.[3]

Robinson's parents migrated from England to New Zealand in the 1890s. He and his brother George operated a building business in Auckland for many years. He died after a long illness.[4]
