Rivers Montagu Turnbull (6 January 1855 – 24 February 1927) was an English cricketer. Turnball was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm roundarm slow. He was born at Bulandshahr in British India.

Turnbull made two first-class appearances for Sussex against Lancashire at Old Trafford in 1877, and Kent at the Old County Ground, Town Malling.[1] In his first match, Lancashire won the toss and elected to bat, making 345 all out, during which Turnbull bowled nine wicketless overs, conceding 31 runs. In Sussex's first-innings of 241 all out, Turnbull was dismissed for a duck by Alexander Watson. Forced to follow-on in their second-innings, Sussex were dismissed for just 73 all out, with Turnbull again dismissed for a duck, this time by William McIntyre. Lancashire won the match by an innings and 31 runs.[2] In his second match, Sussex won the toss and elected to bat, making 146 all out, with Turnbull scoring 2 runs before he was dismissed by Dick Penn. Kent responded in their first-innings by making 209 all out, with Turnbull bowling 12.3 overs for 23 runs and taking the wickets of George Hearne and James Bray. In their second-innings, Sussex were dismissed for 147 all out, Turnbull being dismissed for a duck by Charles Cunliffe. Set 88 for victory, Kent were dismissed for just 73, handing Sussex victory by 11 runs.[3]

He died at Westminster in London, on 24 February 1927.
