The Titans cricket team is the name which the Northerns Cricket Union uses to brand its top-level teams in South African domestic cricket.

The brand was established in 2004 as a men's franchise operated by Northerns and Easterns, two of the three top-level teams in Gauteng province. During the period of franchise cricket, which lasted until the end of the 2020–21 season, the Titans franchise competed in the CSA 4-Day Domestic Series, CSA One-Day Cup, and CSA T20 Challenge competitions while both Northerns and Easterns competed separately in the CSA 3-Day and One-Day Cups and CSA T20 competitions. Following the end of the franchise period, top-level competition in South Africa reverted to competitions involving provincial teams. 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.

Since the end of the franchise period, the team has played most of its matches at SuperSport Park in Centurion. As both a franchise organisation and under the sole control of Northerns, the side has won a number of domestic competitions.
