Dane Leeroy Piedt (born 6 March 1990 in Cape Town) is a South African cricketer. He plays for the Cape Cobras. He made his Test cricket debut for South Africa against Zimbabwe in August 2014.

Piedt, like many of his other Cape Cobras' team-mates, made his first-class debut for the Western Province cricket team. Primarily an off-spin bowler, Piedt is also a useful lower-order batsman. Piedt signed with the Cape Cobras in 2011 and impressed with his flight and guile and clever bowling.

Piedt represented South Africa during an Emerging Players tournament between India, Australia and New Zealand. He had a largely ineffective tournament, playing in one first-class match taking a wicket albeit expensively, and did not take a wicket in one limited overs outing.
