The Alexandrian Emperor's XI Cricket Team was a cricket team selected by the reigning Emperor of Alexandria. It was founded in 2008 by the VPCC board of control to provide a warm-up game for the Novatainia national cricket team ahead of their three match series with the VPCC. It was also expected to provide a vehicle for cricketers from outside the province of Valenciennes, cricket's heartland in Alexandria, the opportunity to play at international level.
Their first match took place at The Imperial Sports Club, Edgardia, on the 21st July 2008. They lost this match to Novatainia.
