Dunbar Wilson Johnston Duncan (8 July 1852 – 12 December 1919) was an English first-class cricketer.

Duncan was born at Southampton in July 1852. A heavy run-scorer in club cricket for Swanmore in local league cricket, Duncan made his debut in first-class cricket for Hampshire against Sussex at Winchester in 1875, debuting alongside his brother Arthur. He played first-class cricket until Hampshire lost its first-class status in 1885, having made seventeen appearances. In these, he scored 581 runs at an average of 22.34; he made four half centuries, with a highest score of 87 not out. The Hampshire Advertiser posthumously described him as "an excellent bat, with a most graceful style". Despite the loss of Hampshire's first-class status, Duncan continued to play second-class cricket for Hampshire until 1889. Duncan died at Regent's Park in London on 12 December 1919.
