The 2018 English cricket season ran between 1 April and 27 September 2018 and was the 119th in which the County Championship has been an official competition. It featured first-class, one-day and Twenty20 cricket competitions throughout England and Wales.

The season saw men's international tours by Pakistan, Australia and India, with Pakistan and India playing Test matches against England. The South African and New Zealand women's teams also toured England, each playing three One Day International matches against the England women's cricket team. The three teams also competed in the 2018 England women's Tri-Nation Series Twenty20 competition.

The 18 first-class counties competed in the 2018 County Championship, One-Day Cup and T20 Blast competitions, whilst women's teams played in the 2018 Women's Cricket Super League, 2018 Women's County Championship and the 2018 Women's Twenty20 Cup. The 2018 Minor Counties Championship, MCCA Knockout Trophy and a new Twenty20 competition were competed for by the Minor Counties of England and Wales, and club cricket was played throughout both countries.
