The 2022 Malaysia Cricket World Cup Challenge League A was the third round of matches in Group A of the 2019–2022 ICC Cricket World Cup Challenge League, a cricket tournament which formed part of the qualification pathway to the 2023 Cricket World Cup.[1][2] In October 2019, the International Cricket Council (ICC) confirmed that the Malaysia Cricket Association would host the tournament,[3] with the series scheduled to take place between 16 and 26 March 2020.[4] All of the matches had List A status.[5]
In March 2020, the ICC confirmed that the tournament had been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with the aim of playing it later in the year.[6][7] Prior to the March postponement, Canada, Denmark and Vanuatu had named their squads for the tournament.[8][9][10] On 24 March 2020, an ICC media release stated that the tournament would be scheduled to take place from 30 September to 10 October 2020.[11] However, on 25 August 2020, the ICC confirmed that the tournament had been postponed due to the pandemic.[12][13] In April 2021, the ICC announced that the tournament would be played during November and December 2021.[14] Eventually the series began in December 2022, with Canada in a strong position to progress.[15]
On 6 December 2022, Canada defeated Singapore by 187 runs to secure first place in Challenge League A and a place in the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier Play-off.[16]
