Calvin Grant Harrison (born 29 April 1998) is a South African-born English cricketer.

Harrison was born at Durban and was educated in England at King's College, Taunton. From King's he went up to Oxford Brookes University.[1] While studying at Oxford Brookes, he made two appearances in first-class cricket for Oxford MCCU in 2019, playing against Middlesex and Hampshire.[2][notes 1] He scored 65 runs in his two matches, with a high score of 37 not out.[3] With his leg break and googly bowling, he took 3 wickets with best figures of 1 for 30.[4] He made his Twenty20 debut on 10 September 2020, for Hampshire in the 2020 t20 Blast.[5]

On 8 June 2021, Harrison signed for Nottinghamshire on a three-month contract.[6] A month later this was extended to a two-year deal.[7][8] In April 2022, he was bought by the Manchester Originals for the 2022 season of The Hundred.[9]

Harrison made his First Class debut for Nottinghamshire against Essex in May 2023[10][11] and penned a further three-year contract with the club in July that year.[10][11][12]
