William George Dyas (6 November 1872 – 14 January 1940) was an English first-class cricketer.

Dyas was born in November 1872 at Madeley, Shropshire. An early figure in Shropshire cricket, having played for the county since 1892, Dyas was on the staff of Warwickshire by 1901.[1] He did not play first-class cricket for Warwickshire, but did play four first-class matches for London County, captained by W. G. Grace; he made three appearances in 1901, followed by one in 1902.[2] He scored 136 runs in his four matches, at an average of 22.66.[3] His highest score of 83, which was his only half century in first-class cricket, came against the Marylebone Cricket Club in 1901.[4] He also took 3 wickets with the ball.[5] By 1926, Dyas was involved in the clay industry in Shropshire.[6] He died at Madeley in January 1940.
