Associate international cricket in 2020
# Associate international cricket in 2020

The 2020 Associate international cricket season was from May to August 2020. All official twenty over matches between Associate members of the ICC were eligible to have full Twenty20 International (T20I) or Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) status, as the International Cricket Council (ICC) granted T20I status to matches between all of its members from 1 July 2018 (women's teams) and 1 January 2019 (men's teams). The season included all T20I/WT20I cricket series mostly involving ICC Associate members, that were played in addition to series covered in International cricket in 2020. On 24 March, ICC announced that all qualifying events scheduled to take place before 30 June had been postponed due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including the 2020 ICC T20 World Cup Europe Qualifiers and the 2020 ICC T20 World Cup Asia Eastern Region Qualifier.
