The Scotland cricket team toured Hong Kong in January 2016.[1] The tour consisted of a first-class match, two One Day Internationals (ODIs) and two Twenty20 Internationals (T20I) match.[2] The first-class match was part of the 2015–17 ICC Intercontinental Cup and the ODIs were part of the 2015–17 ICC World Cricket League Championship.[2]

The ICC Intercontinental Cup match was abandoned without a ball bowled, due to a waterlogged pitch.[3][4] The ODI was the first one to be played in Hong Kong, with Hong Kong beating Scotland by 109 runs.[5][6] The T20I series was drawn 1–1.[7]
