The European Cricket Championship is a national team cricket tournament for the European countries associated with the International Cricket Council. In the past, the tournament was played as a league system, where the teams were split into divisions. The competition was designed to encourage and develop the best players in countries where cricket was not a major sport and Europe's only Test cricket playing country at the time, England, did not enter a full-strength side. The games were often played as 50-over one-day cricket matches.

Since 2021, the tournament was switched to a standard format, with the participant teams split into groups, and is now played in the T10 format.

The most recent winner has been England, who won the 2023 edition. The next tournament, ECC 24, will take place from 23rd of September to the 18th of October 2024 at Spain. participating countries in 2024: 32.

History

The European Cricket Championships began in 1996 as a competition for seven European associate teams and an (English Cricket Board) ECB XI. ^[1] The second installment, two years later, saw the two new associate members, France and Germany join them and the competition played over two divisions.

In 2000, places were given to the top finishers of the European Affiliates Championship and this continued over the following installments. Promotion and relegation between divisions was not introduced until 2004.

With the introduction of the ICC World Cricket League in 2006, the championship was revamped. The European Affiliates Championship was incorporated into the European Cricket Championships with the teams being split between Divisions Two, Three and Four according to the placement in the final competition. Additionally, the ECB XI was no longer included and only full national sides could take part. A fifth league was introduced in 2009–10 season containing some of the newest affiliate members of the European Cricket Council, but discontinued thereafter, along with Division 4. With the end of the World Cricket League in 2017, the European 50-over divisional structure was abolished altogether.
