ICC status
  
Former member (1966 to 1989)

The East Africa cricket team was a cricket team representing Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Zambia. Their first game was against a South African Non-European team in 1958. East Africa appeared in the 1975 World Cup and the 1979, 1982 and 1986 ICC Trophies. In the last two of these the Kenya national cricket team was also represented in its own right, so that East Africa was effectively a Ugandan/Tanzanian/Zambian team.
