The Malaysia T10 Bash is a very short-format cricket competition with only ten overs. It was established in the year 2020 and is organised by the Malaysia Cricket Association. Eight teams have ever participated in the tournament since it began. The Malaysia T10 Bash always finished after 15 matches played over 4 days. The tournament plays group stages with a single round-robin format.
Until now, four editions of the Malaysia T10 Bash have taken place. The Champions were decided, in the 4th edition (2024), after very intense competition, as five teams were tied for the highest points. Net Run Rate (NRR) was considered at that point, and JB Panthers were crowned champions with +5.142 NRR.
Before the 2024 season, the tournament was a single-stage event. The association changed the format and went with the JCC Trophy in two phases.
