The Meghalaya cricket team is a cricket team that represents the state of Meghalaya in Indian domestic competitions. In July 2018, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) named the team as one of the nine new sides that would compete in domestic tournaments for the 2018–19 season, including the Ranji Trophy and the Vijay Hazare Trophy.

In September 2018, they won their opening fixture of the 2018–19 Vijay Hazare Trophy, beating Mizoram by 8 wickets. In their first season in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, they finished in fifth place in the Plate Group, with four wins and four defeats from their eight matches. Puneet Bisht finished as the leading run-scorer, with 502 runs, and Gurinder Singh and Abhay Negi were the joint-leading wicket-takers for the team, with fourteen dismissals each. In November 2018, in their opening match of the 2018–19 Ranji Trophy, they beat Arunachal Pradesh by seven wickets. They finished the 2018–19 tournament fourth in the table, with four wins from their eight matches.
