Richard (Dick) Sale (4 October 1919 — 3 February 1987) was an English schoolmaster and cricketer who played for Warwickshire between 1939 and 1947 and for Derbyshire between 1949 and 1954. Sale was born in Atcham, Shropshire, the son of Richard Sale who had also played cricket for Derbyshire. He was educated at Oxford University and played for Oxford University in 1939 opening the batting in the University Match, which Oxford won. In the same year he made his debut for Warwickshire in a match in which the only play was his opening partnership. The Second World War interrupted his academic and playing career, as he served in the army. In 1946 he played again for Oxford University, and again Oxford won the Varsity match. He then finished the season playing for Warwickshire. Sale then became a master at Repton School, and made his debut for Derbyshire in the 1949 season. Sale with Guy Willatt, and John Eggar formed a trio of Repton masters who played for the county.〔Restricted access behind a pay wall.(Obituary ''Guy Willatt'' The Times 13 June 2003 )〕 He played for them annually during the school holidays until the 1954 season.
