Michael John Hill (born 1 July 1951 in Harwell, Berkshire (now Oxfordshire)) is a retired English cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman who played as a wicketkeeper.
Educated at Abingdon School where he was coached by ex-England cricketer Gerald Smithson, Hill played his entire first-class career for Hampshire, making his first-class debut in 1973 against the touring West Indians. Hill's next first-class match would not come until 1975, when he played against the touring Australians. The same year Hill made his one-day debut for Hampshire against Surrey County Cricket Club.
Hill played four first-class matches during the 1976 County Championship season, with Hill's final first-class match coming against Kent in May 1976. His final one-day match came against Somerset in the same month. Hill left Hampshire midway through the 1976 season.
