A cricketer is a person who plays the sport of cricket. Official and long-established cricket publications prefer the traditional word "cricketer" over the term "cricket player".

A cricketer can also be said as cricket player. Also each cricketer, or cricket player has a certain role in the his or her team. For instance, a player may be a wicketkeeper, or a bowler or batsman. Sometimes though, a cricketer may be an all-rounder who both bowls and bats for their team.

The word is also used to refer to one of a number of print publications related to the sport:

• The Cricketer
• The Wisden Cricketer
• The Cricketer Magazine
