Bryan Allan Davis (born 2 May 1940) is a former West Indian international cricketer from Trinidad who played in four Test matches in 1965. He later qualified for Glamorgan, playing in the championship winning side in 1969.
Career Davis was born in Port of Spain, where he attended St Mary's College. He was an opening batsman and reliable slip fielder who played first-class cricket for Trinidad and Tobago from 1959β60 to 1970β71. He made his first first-class century in Trinidad's victory over Jamaica in 1963β64. He played his first Test the next season, scoring 54 and 58 against Australia on his home ground at Port of Spain, but was less successful in the next three Tests.

Davis joined Glamorgan for the 1969 season, when they won the County Championship. After struggling in the opening position at first, he moved down to the middle order. According to the Glamorgan captain at the time, Tony Lewis, he "developed into a superb cricketer in the middle order and a quite brilliant first slip". He scored 1,148 runs in 1969 at an average of 30.21, often making quick runs when they were needed. He scored 1,532 runs at 31.26 in 1970, helping Glamorgan to finish second in the County Championship. However, his family did not enjoy living in South Wales, and after the 1970 season he returned to Trinidad.
