[edit] International Competition

Croatia have been a regular participant in the European Cricket Council's various tournaments, starting in 2000 with the ECC Representative Championships, the fourth tier of European competition. They finished as runners up to Norway in that tournament. They hosted the same tournament two years later, where they finished third behind Finland and Slovenia, but then won the 2004 tournament.

They also competed in the ECC Trophy in 2001, 2003 and 2005, their best result coming in the 2005 tournament when they finished in seventh place. This meant that they will play in Division Three of the newly expanded five division European Championship tournament in 2007.
