Hong Kong at the Men's T20 World Cup

They qualified for their maiden T20 World Cup in 2014 after finishing sixth in the 2013 qualifier.[1] They managed to qualify for the next edition in 2016, but have not reached the global stage since then. They managed to defeat a full-member team, Bangladesh in their debut campaign.
