2018 MCC Tri-nation series was a cricket tournament that was held on 29 July 2018 at Lord's in England.[1] The series featured Nepal, Netherlands and Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), with the matches played as Twenty20 fixtures.[2] The third fixture, between Nepal and the Netherlands, was given full Twenty20 International (T20I) status by the International Cricket Council (ICC).[3]

Rain affected all three matches. The first two fixtures were both reduced to six overs per side.[4] In the third and final match, only 16.4 overs of play was possible, with the game ending in a no result.[5] Nepal and the Netherlands shared the series.[6]
