The 2018–19 CSA 4-Day Franchise Series[1] is a first-class cricket competition currently taking place in South Africa from 26 September 2018 to 31 January 2019.[2][3] It is the first edition not to be sponsored by Sunfoil, after they decided not to renew their sponsorship.[4][5]

Cricket South Africa announced that the competition would be split into two sections, the first from September to November, and the second from December and January.[2] This will be used to help prepare the national side for the Test series against Pakistan, to be played in December 2018 and January 2019.[2] Titans are the defending champions.[6]
