The Hong Kong cricket team toured Ireland in August and September 2016 to play two Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is) matches at Bready Cricket Club Ground, Magheramason as well as a first-class match at Stormont, Belfast.
The first-class match was part of the 2015–17 ICC Intercontinental Cup, with Ireland winning by 70 runs. Hong Kong won the T20I series 1–0, after a 40-run victory in the first match and the second match being abandoned without a ball being bowled.
Jacob Mulder was added to the squad as a replacement for Barry McCarthy, who was recalled back to Durham for the County Championship.
