Italy in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup — History

Italy’s national cricket team is an associate member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) and has historically played in regional qualifiers rather than the main T20 World Cup tournaments. They have never appeared in a Men’s T20 World Cup until the 2026 edition, which will be their first ever World Cup participation.
