The 2016 cricket season was the 419th in England since the earliest known definite reference to cricket in January 1597 (i.e., Old Style – 1598 New Style), and the 117th in which the County Championship has been an official competition. The season began in March with a round of university matches, and continued until the conclusion of a round of County Championship matches in late September. Three major domestic competitions were contested: the 2016 County Championship, the 2016 Royal London One-Day Cup and the 2016 NatWest t20 Blast.
During the season, two Test teams toured England. Sri Lanka competed early in the summer, with Pakistan also touring later in the year.
