Anthony Abdy (26 April 1856 - 4 July 1924) was an English cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman who played for Hampshire. He was born in Cambridge and died in La Tour-de-Peilz, Switzerland.
Abdy, who played for Essex prior to their entrance into first-class cricket, made his only first-class appearance during the 1881 season, for Hampshire against Marylebone Cricket Club. From the opening order, Abdy scored 7 runs in the first innings in which he batted, and 23 runs in the second.
