Cape Province cricket team

The Cape Province cricket team and its predecessor the Cape Colony cricket team were South African cricket teams that played 11 matches against English touring teams between 1888 and 1948. The last five of these matches had first-class status.

The team brought together players from the four first-class teams in Cape ProvinceWestern Province, Eastern Province, Border and Griqualand West. The team did not take part in the South African domestic competition, the Currie Cup; its four constituent teams competed separately. The Cape Colony team won one of its early matches, but all five of the Cape Colony/Province's first-class matches resulted in victories to the English team by wide margins.
