The Basil D'Oliveira Trophy is a trophy played for by England and South Africa in the sport of cricket.

[1] The trophy is awarded to the team that wins a Test series between the two nations.

It was first contested in the 2004–05 series played in South Africa.

The trophy is named after Basil D'Oliveira, a South African born English Test cricketer whose inclusion in the English squad to tour South Africa in 1968–69 led to the cancellation of the tour following objections from South African authorities due to D'Oliveira's classification as "coloured".

[2] Prior to the trophy's inception, England and South Africa had played twenty-nine series, sixteen in South Africa and thirteen in England.
