The Malawian national cricket team is the team that represents the Republic of Malawi in international cricket.

History

In 2002 Malawi participated in the Africa Cup in which 10 nations took part. They came last in the group, losing all 4 matches.
They became an affiliate member of the International Cricket Council in 2003 and an associate member in 2017. Their international debut came the following year in the African affiliates championship, where they came fourth. They participated in the equivalent tournament in 2006, Division Three of the African region of the World Cricket League, once again coming fourth.
In October 2009 Malawi hosted the WCL Africa Div 3 tournament, beating all participants to win the tournament. They were promoted to WCL Africa Division 2 for the next tournament in Benoni, SA. They struggled at this level and finished last.
In April 2018, the ICC decided to grant full Twenty20 International status to all its members. Therefore, all Twenty20 matches played between Malawi and other ICC members after 1 January 2019 will be a full T20I. Malawi's first T20I matches are scheduled to be played against Mozambique during the 2019 Kwacha Cup, starting on 6 November 2019.
