The Test and County Cricket Board (TCCB) was the governing body for Test and county cricket in Great Britain between 1968 and 1996. The TCCB was established in 1968 to replace the functions of the Board of Control for Test Matches (established in 1898) and the Advisory County Cricket Committee (1904) which had been set up by the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) to administer Test cricket in England and the County Championship respectively. In order to be eligible for government funding through the Sports Council, cricket needed an independent governing body and the representatives from the TCCB, together with representatives from MCC and the National Cricket Association (NCA), formed a new Cricket Council, initially known as the MCC Council. The TCCB assumed responsibility for all county cricket and the England team at home and abroad, although England touring teams continued under the name MCC until the 1976–77 season.[1]
In 1992 Scotland severed their ties with the TCCB and England. The TCCB, NCA and Cricket Council were in turn superseded from 1 January 1997 by the England and Wales Cricket Board.
