The China national cricket team is the team that represents China in international cricket. The team was organised by the Chinese Cricket Association, which became an affiliate member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) in 2004[5] and an associate member in 2017.[1] China did not make its debut in international cricket until the 2009 ACC Trophy Challenge, [6] although the Shanghai Cricket Club had previously acted as a de facto national side, from 1866 playing interport matches against international teams.[7] China has since participated in several other Asian Cricket Council (ACC) tournaments, as well as at the 2010 and 2014 Asian Games cricket events. [6] Hong Kong (a Special Administrative Region of China) and Taiwan (claimed as China's 23rd province) both field separate teams in international cricket.
In April 2018, the ICC decided to grant full Twenty20 International (T20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between China and other ICC members after 1 January 2019 will be a full T20I.[8]
