Team Overview

General
Malaysia competed at the two previous editions of the Asian Games to have featured men's cricket. They exited the competition at the quarterfinal stage on both occasions, losing to Bangladesh at the 2010 Games in Guangzhou and suffering defeat to Hong Kong, China four years later in Incheon.

The Malaysian team had a successful tournament as hosts of the 2017 South East Asian Games in Kuala Lumpur, finishing on the podium in both the 50-over tournament and the Twenty20 tournament. They were gold medallists in the 50-over format after winning all four of their matches, but had to settle for silver in the Twenty20 tournament following defeat to Singapore in the final.

In July 2022 the team won the Malaysia Quadrangular Series, a four-team tournament that also featured Bhutan, Maldives, and Thailand.
