The 2022 Inter-Provincial Cup is the tenth edition of the Inter-Provincial Cup, a List A cricket competition that is taking place in Ireland during 2022. It is the sixth edition of the competition to be played with List A status. On 4 March 2022, Cricket Ireland confirmed the fixtures for the tournament.[1]

Leinster Lightning were the defending champions, having won the tournament for an eighth time in 2021.[2] In the opening match, Leinster Lightning began their title defence with a seven wicket win against North West Warriors,[3] with George Dockrell taking a five-wicket haul.[4] In their next match, Leinster Lightning made 304/6 against Munster Reds, but lost by five wickets after Peter Moor scored 152 runs, the highest individual score in the Inter-Provincial Cup.[5] Munster Reds also made the highest successful run chase in an Inter-Provincial Cup match.[6]

Munster Reds won their first senior title following the abandonment of the final slate of matches.
