Graham James Kersey (19 May 1971 – 1 January 1997) was an English first-class cricketer for Kent and Surrey.

Kersey was educated at Beths Grammar School. A wicket-keeper, he first entered the county scene for Kent in 1991 but after only playing sporadically he moved to Surrey two years later. With Alec Stewart on international duty he found himself as the first choice keeper until 1996. On 1 January 1997 Kersey died from injuries received in a car crash a week prior in Queensland. He was just 25.
