List of Titans cricketers

This is a list of cricketers who played for the South African franchise team Titans between the 2003–04 season and 2020–21. It includes the players who appeared for the team in first-class, List A and Twenty20 competitions during the period in which the team was a franchise.

During 2003, Cricket South Africa changed the way in which top-class domestic cricket in the country was organised. This created six franchise teams at the top level of domestic competition, combining the existing provincial sides to create an elite competition. Titans were formed by combining two of the existing teams in Gauteng province, Easterns and Northerns.[a] Initially the side competed in the 2003–04 CSA T20 Challenge, before the CSA 4-Day Domestic Series and CSA One-Day Cup also became franchise-only competitions the following season.[1][2][3]

During the period of franchise competitions, Easterns and Northerns continued to compete as separate cricket unions in the CSA 3-Day and One-Day Cups and CSA T20 competitions. The period of franchise competition lasted until the end of the 2020–21 season when Cricket South Africa reverted to a division based provincial competition, with both teams competing separately from the start of the 2021–22 season.[4][5] Many of the senior provincial unions which had been involved in franchise competitions retained the names of their franchises as marketing tools. Northerns, the senior team in the Titans franchise, chose to do so and compete using the name Titans.[1]

This list includes only the players who played for Titans franchise between 2003–04 and 2020–21, the period in which franchise cricket operated in South Africa. It does not include players who appeared only for Easterns or Northerns in provincial competitions during that period, or those who played for Northerns after the end of franchise competitions in 2020–21.[6]
