The 2016 East Asia Cup was a Twenty20 (T20) cricket tournament, which was held in Japan in November 2016.[1] The matches were all played at the Sano International Cricket Ground in the city of Sano.[2]

The Twenty20 East Asia Cup is an annual competition featuring China, Hong Kong, Japan and South Korea that was first played in 2015 and alternates annually between a men's and women's event.[3] This was the first edition of the men's event, after China won the inaugural women's edition in 2015.[4] Matches did not have Twenty20 International status. Hong Kong was represented by the Hong Kong Dragons side, a team representing Hong Kong's Chinese community, instead of the full national side.

South Korea defeated hosts Japan in the final on 6 November 2016 to win the East Asia Cup.[2]
