Edward Richard Spieker Brander (21 July 1845 – 2 May 1883) was an English cricketer. Brander's batting style is unknown. He was born at Dartford, Kent.

Educated at Cheltenham College, where he played for the college cricket team,[1] Brander made a single first-class appearance for the Orleans Club against the touring Australians in 1878 at the Orleans Club Ground.[2] Batting once in the match, Brander was dismissed for 2 runs by Frank Allan in a match which ended in a draw.[3]

Outside of cricket, Brander served in the East Surrey Regiment as a captain,[4] serving from 1864 until his death at Southbourne, Hampshire on 2 May 1883.[5]
