Remove ads
This is a partial list of cricketers who have played first-class, List A cricket, or Twenty20 cricket for North Eastern Transvaal, Northern Transvaal and Northerns in South Africa. The team was renamed Northerns ahead of the 1996–97 season following the renaming of Transvaal province to Gauteng in 1994.
North Eastern Transvaal made its senior debut in the Currie Cup in 1937–38 and from 1946–47 played regularly in the competition. The side first played List A cricket in 1970–71, the first season of provincial List A cricket in South Africa.[a][2]
The team was renamed as Northern Transvaal ahead of the 1971–72 season[3] and then as Northerns ahead of the 1996–97 season, continuing to play first-class and List A cricket throughout this period.[4] Northern Transvaal B played in the first-class Currie Cup Bowl competition from 1981–82, with Northerns B playing in the same competition in 1997–98 and 1998–99, the final seasons of the Bowl competition.[5][6] Northerns played its first domestic Twenty20 cricket in the first season of the CSA Provincial T20 in 2011–12.[4]
This list includes the players who played first-class and List A cricket for North Eastern Transvaal between 1937–38 and 1970–71,[2], for Northern Transvaal and Northern Transvaal B between 1971–72 and 1995–96,[3][5] and those who played first-class, List A, and Twenty20 cricket for Northerns and Northerns B from 1996–97 to the present day.[4][6] It does not include players who appeared only for franchise side Titans which was operated by the Northerns and Easterns Cricket Unions between 2003–04 and 2020–21.[b][7][8][9]

Notes
- The 1969–70 Gillette Cup competition had taken place the previous season, but teams did not use their provincial names. The team that represented North Eastern Transvaal was organised by Jackie Botten and known as JT Botten's XI. It played one match. All 11 players who appeared for this side also played matches for North Eastern Transvaal so, by default, appear on this list.[1]
- The players who played for the franchise side are listed at List of Titans cricketers.
