What does it means when a cricketer is awarded his cap?

Ian Sowman:
   An International Cap is awarded on debut whereas a 
   county cap may take years on the staff to earn.

Steve Shadbolt:
   At county level it is a recognition that the player is 
   good enough to be a regular 1st team player. Usually
   means a pay rise. It in effect means you have passed
   your apprenticeship.

 Didds:
    And the recipient actually gets a cloth county cap.
