Clyde Fortuin (born 18 August 1995) is a South African cricketer.[1] He was part of South Africa's squad for the 2014 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup. He was included in the Border cricket team squad for the 2015 Africa T20 Cup.[2] In August 2017, he was named in Bloem City Blazers' squad for the first season of the T20 Global League.[3] However, in October 2017, Cricket South Africa initially postponed the tournament until November 2018, with it being cancelled soon after.[4]

In September 2019, Fortuin was named in Northern Cape's squad for the 2019–20 CSA Provincial T20 Cup.[5] In April 2021, he was named in Boland's squad, ahead of the 2021–22 cricket season in South Africa.[6] On 4 October 2021, in the 2021–22 CSA Provincial T20 Knock-Out tournament, Fortuin scored his first century in Twenty20 cricket, with 104 not out against Warriors.[7]
