Renowned for producing several players who have gone on to represent the German national team, CICC continues to be a beacon of cricketing excellence in the region.
This past season 2024 marked a new chapter for the club, as it embarked on its journey with a relatively fresh team. While the T20 league results did not meet initial expectations, the club showcased remarkable resilience and determination in the One day- Regional Liga, securing an impressive 3rd place finish among 34 competing teams.
Standout Performances
The 2024 season was not without its shining moments. Ahmadullah Popal demonstrated exceptional skill with the bat, ranking among the top five run-scorers in the league. His consistency and ability to deliver under pressure were instrumental in the team’s success.
On the bowling front, Kausar Agha dominated the 50-over league, taking an extraordinary 24 wickets. His efforts were recognized with the prestigious Best Bowler Award by the WDCV (Westdeutscher Cricket Verband), further cementing his place as one of the most formidable bowlers in the region.
Looking Ahead

„Fourteen years ago, I walked onto the ground of the Cologne International Cricket Club (CICC) as a young, eager 14-year-old player with dreams of making my mark in the game. Today, at 31, I’m honored to serve as the Chairman of this incredible club,“ shared the Chairman of CICC. „Along the way, I had the privilege of representing Germany in the U15, U17, and U19 national teams, an achievement that reflects not just individual effort but the strong foundation and support provided by CICC. Over the years, many players from our club have gone on to represent Germany and compete in higher divisions, showcasing the immense talent fostered here.“
Reflecting on the club’s journey, the Chairman added, „With a team full of special talents and unmatched camaraderie, the future of CICC is brighter than ever. Together, we’re ready to take on new challenges and continue to elevate the game of cricket in Germany.“
