'''Charl Kenneth Langeveldt''' (born 17 December 1974) is a South African cricket coach and former [[cricket]]er who is currently a bowling coach with the [[Zimbabwe national cricket team]].

As a cricket player, he played all formats of the game. A right-arm [[Fast bowling|fast-medium]] [[Bowling (cricket)|bowler]], he played for South Africa between 2001 and 2010, primarily in [[One Day International]]s. Langeveldt was the first South African to take a hat-trick in the [[One Day International|ODI]] format. He was the bowling coach for the national team.

==Domestic career==
Langeveldt was born at [[Stellenbosch]] in [[Cape Province]]<ref name=ci>[http://www.espncricinfo.com/southafrica/content/player/45963.html Charl Langeveldt], ESPNcricinfo. Retrieved 23 October 2018.</ref> and worked as a warder at the [[Drakenstein Correctional Centre]] before pursuing his career in cricket.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.gulfnews.com/Sport/Cricket/10315842.html |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130125043317/http://www.gulfnews.com/Sport/Cricket/10315842.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=25 January 2013 |title=Prison guard job made me tough |work=[[Gulf News]] |date=21 May 2009 |access-date=26 May 2009 }}</ref> In 2005, Langeveldt was [[Morecambe Cricket Club]]'s professional player;<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.morecambecc.com/club/club.html |title=Morecambe CC |access-date=23 April 2007 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070216145555/http://www.morecambecc.com/club/club.html |archive-date=16 February 2007}}</ref> he later returned to the Northern Premier League for the 2007 season with Netherfield Cricket Club.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.northerncricketleague.org/netherfield.html |title=Netherfield CC Club Officials |publisher=Northern Cricket League |access-date=23 April 2007}}</ref>

In 2008, Langeveldt joined [[Derbyshire County Cricket Club|Derbyshire]] as a [[Kolpak ruling|Kolpak]] player,<ref>{{cite news |title=Langeveldt signs for Derbyshire |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/counties/derbyshire/7367903.stm |publisher=BBC |date=26 April 2008 |access-date=4 May 2008}}</ref> before playing for [[Kent County Cricket Club|Kent]] as an overseas player in the [[2011 Friends Life t20]]. Langeveldt also played for the [[Bangalore Royal Challengers]] in the [[Indian Premier League]] (IPL).

==International career==
He made his Test debut in January 2005 against [[England cricket team|England]] at his home ground of [[Newlands Cricket Ground|Cape Town]] and took 5 for 46 in the first innings.<ref name="espncricinfo">{{Cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/64118.html |title=3rd Test: South Africa v England at Cape Town, Jan 2–6, 2005 |work=ESPNcricinfo |access-date=18 December 2011}}</ref> His ODI debut came much earlier, in October 2001 against [[Kenya national cricket team|Kenya]] at [[De Beers Diamond Oval|Kimberley]], where he took two wickets. He was rewarded with 4 for 21 in the following game at [[Newlands Cricket Ground|Newlands]]. Included in South Africa's [[2003 Cricket World Cup|2003 World Cup]] squad, he played in only one game which was in the pool stage against Kenya.

In 2005, in the 3rd ODI against the [[West Indies cricket team|West Indies]] at [[Kensington Oval|Barbados]], he took a [[Hat-trick (cricket)|hat-trick]] in the last over as South Africa won the match by 1 run. He bowled [[Ian Bradshaw]] and [[Daren Powell]] before getting [[Corey Collymore]] [[Leg before wicket|LBW]] to seal the victory. It was the first ever ODI hat-trick by a South African.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://aus.cricinfo.com/db/STATS/ODIS/BOWLING/ODI_BOWL_HAT-TRICKS.html |title=One Day Internationals – Hat Tricks |work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=23 April 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070126035501/http://aus.cricinfo.com/db/STATS/ODIS/BOWLING/ODI_BOWL_HAT-TRICKS.html |archive-date=26 January 2007 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

In 2007 he played in his second Cricket World Cup and after taking 5/39 in their win against Sri Lanka he became just the third South African to take a World Cup 5 wicket haul,<ref>{{cite web |url=http://aus.cricinfo.com/db/STATS/WC/BOWLING/WC_BOWL_ALL_INNS_5W.html |title=World Cup 5 wickets in an innings |work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=23 April 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20040727154703/http://aus.cricinfo.com/db/STATS/WC/BOWLING/WC_BOWL_ALL_INNS_5W.html |archive-date=27 July 2004 |url-status=dead }}</ref> which was also the first 5 wicket haul of the 2007 World Cup.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/wc2007/content/current/story/287599.html |title=South Africa survive Malinga's menacing spell |work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=23 April 2007}}</ref>

In early 2008, Langeveldt was controversially selected in the Test team for South Africa's tour of India at the expense of the white paceman [[André Nel]]. This was widely believed to be due to an order from Cricket South Africa to select more non-white players in the team as part of its transformation policy, rather than performance. Citing the controversy, Langeveldt declined to join the team.<ref>[http://www.cricinfo.com/southafrica/content/story/353082.html I did not interfere in team selection for India – Arendse], ESPNcricinfo, 31 May 2008. Retrieved 23 October 2018.</ref>

==Coaching career==
Langeveldt has had two spells as South Africa's bowling coach. The first ran from June 2015<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/20669475/langeveldt-appointed-sa-bowling-coach|title=Langeveldt appointed SA bowling coach|date=2 June 2015|work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=6 August 2020}}</ref> to October 2017, when [[Ottis Gibson]] took over the role.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/21222874/ottis-gibson-take-south-africa-bowling-coach-role-charl-langeveldt|title=Gibson to take over SA bowling coach role from Langeveldt|work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=30 October 2017}}</ref> Langeveldt was appointed as the bowling coach of [[Bangladesh national cricket team]] in July 2019,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.thedailystar.net/sports/bangladesh-cricket/news/bcb-appoints-langeveldt-bowling-coach-1777744|title=BCB appoints Langeveldt as bowling coach|date=27 July 2019|website=The Daily Star|language=en|access-date=27 July 2019}}</ref> but moved back to a coaching role with South Africa in December 2019.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/28319491/charl-langeveldt-quits-bangladesh-bowling-coach-accepts-south-africa-role|title=Charl Langeveldt quits as Bangladesh bowling coach, accepts South Africa role|date=17 December 2019|work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=5 August 2020}}</ref>
