Add article description

Cricket competitions at the 2023 SEA Games were held at AZ Group Cricket Oval in Phnom Penh, Cambodia from 29 April to 16 May 2023. Despite cricket in Cambodia being relatively unknown, the sport was included in the games following lobbying from the Cricket Federation of Cambodia and the Asian Cricket Council.[1]

Four different formats of cricket were contested: 50 overs, 20 overs, 10 overs, and six-a-side.[2] National teams were eligible to compete in up to three of the four formats (except for hosts Cambodia who entered all formats).[3] Matches played in the T20 tournaments had full men's Twenty20 International or women's Twenty20 International status with ranking points on offer.[4]

During the games, the Malaysia Cricket Association complained about the organisation of the events, particularly the unseeded group stages and the lack of semi-finals, and questioned the eligibility of 13 members of Cambodia's men's squad.[5]
