The Cypriot national cricket team is the team that represents Cyprus in international cricket. They became an International Cricket Council (ICC) affiliate member in 1999,[6] and an associate member in 2017,[1] although it was not until August 2006 that they made their international debut, finishing as runners up in Division Four of the European Championship.
In April 2018, the ICC decided to grant full Twenty20 International (T20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between Cyprus and other ICC members after 1 January 2019 will be a full T20I.[7]
