Contents

In April 2018, the ICC decided to grant full Twenty20 International (T20I) status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between the Turks and Caicos Islands and other ICC members after 1 January 2019 have the T20I status. [4]

History

Cricket is the national sport of the Turks and Caicos Islands. [5] They became an affiliate member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) in 2002 [5] and an associate member in 2017. [1] Their international debut following their membership came in the Americas Affiliates Championship in 2004 when they played the Bahamas. [6] They finished the tournament in fourth place, with their only win coming against Suriname. They played in Division Three of the ICC Americas Championship in 2006, finishing as runners up to Suriname, just missing out on promotion to Division Two. [6] They were invited to take part in the 2008 Standford 20/20, playing one match in a preliminary round against Montserrat. [7] The match, which held official Twenty20 status, resulted in a Montserrat victory by 9 wickets, resulting in their elimination from the tournament. Donovan Matthews top-scored for the team with 25, while no other batsman reached double figures. Henry Saunders took the only wicket to fall in Montserrat's innings. [8] Shortly after, they took part in the 2008 ICC Americas Championship Division Three, which they won to gain promotion to Division Two. [6] In 2010, they took part in the ICC Americas Championship Division Two, finishing fourth but retaining their status in Division Two. [6] The team finally made it's official international debut in 2025 playing in the Men's Central American Championships where they also went on to win their first T20 International. [9]
