List of North West representative cricketers
This is a partial list of cricketers who have played first-class, List A cricket, or Twenty20 cricket for Western Transvaal and North West in South Africa. The team was renamed ahead of the 1996–97 season following the creation of North West province in 1994.[a][1]
Western Transvaal made its senior debut in the List A Nissan Cup competition during the 1989–90 season. After two seasons it began competing in the first-class UCB Bowl competition, the second division of the Currie Cup.[2] After being renamed, the side continued to compete at first-class and List A level. North West first played domestic Twenty20 cricket in 2011–12, the first season in which provincial Twenty20 competitions were played in South Africa.[3]
This list includes the players who played first-class and List A cricket for Western Transvaal[2] between 1989–90 and 1995–96, and those who played first-class, List A, and Twenty20 cricket for North West[3] from 1996–97 to the present day. It does not include players who appeared only for franchise side Lions which was operated by the North West and Gauteng Cricket Unions between 2003–04 and 2020–21.[b][4][5][6]
