Charl Kenneth Langeveldt (born on December 17, 1974 in Stellenbosch, South Africa) is a South African ODI (One Day International) and Test cricketer. He is one of a couple of Cape Coloureds in the South African side, with the other being Herschelle Gibbs.

Langeveldt is a right-arm fast-medium swing bowler. He made his Test debut in January 2005 against England at his home ground of Cape Town and took 5 for 46 in the first innings. His ODI debut came much earlier, back in October of 2001 against Kenya at Kimberley where he took two wickets. He was rewarded with 4 for 21 in the following game at Newlands. Included in South Africa's 2003 World Cup, he played in only one game which was in the pool stage.

In 2005, in the 3rd ODI against the West Indies at Barbados he took a 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 LBW to seal the victory. It was the first ever ODI hattrick by a South African.[1]

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[2].
