The All Stars 50-Over Series is a domestic cricket tournament in Hong Kong, organized by Cricket Hong Kong (CHK). It operates as a parallel showcase event rather than sitting within the official league pyramid. The competition features representative squads drafted from the country's best players, named after Hong Kong's three major geographic districts: Hong Kong Islanders, Kowloon Lions, and New Territories Tigers.
This invitational format is designed to bridge the gap between club cricket and international cricket, serving as high-quality practice for national squad players. The teams are fixed entities selected by the governing body, meaning there is no promotion or relegation. The format has evolved over time; while earlier editions featured a best-of-3 series between two teams, recent seasons utilize a round-robin league stage involving all three teams, followed by a final.
The New Territories Tigers have been the most successful team in recent history, winning the titles in 2024 and 2024/25. The Hong Kong Islanders won the inaugural editions, though conflicting reports exist regarding the winner of the 2020/21 series. The competition is sponsored by EPIC Group, which holds the naming rights. It stands distinct from the official top-tier domestic league, the Hong Kong Premier League, which features traditional clubs like Hong Kong Cricket Club and Kowloon Cricket Club.
Founded in 2021, the tournament began under the title "EPIC Group All Stars Series." The current season is 2020, featuring Hong Kong Islanders and Kowloon Lions. The event provides a platform for players to gain experience in a competitive environment that mimics international conditions without the pressure of official league standings.
