The German national cricket team is the men's team that represents the country of Germany in international cricket. The German Cricket Federation, which organises the team, has been an associate member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) since 1999, having previously been an affiliate member from 1991.[5][6] The team made its international debut against Denmark in 1989, playing as West Germany.[7] It has since played regularly in European Cricket Championship tournaments, as well as twice in the lower divisions of the World Cricket League.[8] In 2001, Germany also competed in the ICC Trophy (now the World Cup Qualifier) for the first and only time.[9] In 2022, they played their first T20 World Cup Global Qualifier.[10]
