The 2020 Central American Cricket Championship was a cricket tournament that was scheduled to be held in Belize from 17 – 19 April 2020. The event was originally to be held in Panama, but the venue was changed in January 2020 after Panama withdrew from hosting.[1][2][3] It would have been the eighth edition of the Central American Championship and the second since the ICC granted Twenty20 International (T20I) status to matches between all of its Members.[4] Belize were the defending champions, having won the 2019 edition. The participating teams for this edition would have been Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico and Panama.[3]
The tournament was cancelled as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.[5] A separate women's event, due to be held in May and also hosted by Belize, was cancelled for the same reason.[1][3]
