In international cricket, England and Wales are represented by the cricket team. Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) had previously been in charge of it starting in 1903. The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has been in charge of it since 1997.
England is a full member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) and is eligible to participate in Tests, ODIs, and T20 Internationals because it was one of the original members. Because Scotland and Ireland were not ICC members until the 1990s, players from those nations also represented England.
On March 15-19, 1877, England and Australia played their first Test match. On January 5, 1971, they played their first ODI. On June 13, 2005, England played their first T20I, this time against Australia.

The England team has played a major role in every ICC T20 World Cup (earlier known as World T20). They won the Cup in 2010 and lost to West Indies in the Final six years later. During the match, Ben Stokes was memorably struck for four sixes in a row by Carlos Brathwaite. They aren't expected to host a T20 World Cup until 2022, thus they haven't yet.
The England cricket squad and all domestic cricket in England are governed by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB). All cricket-related operations for the England cricket team are now handled by the ECB, which took over for the Test and County Cricket Board (TCCB) in 1997. In addition to ticket revenue, TV rights, and sponsorships, they receive $139 million from the International Cricket Council (ICC). Its main office is located at London's Lord's Cricket Ground.
