Unkila High School Team were a city-based franchise team of the Unkila Unkila Super League (USL) Twenty20 cricket tournament. The team was based at the Unkila School Ground in Bangladesh.
Unkila High School Team played in the first two editions of the USL in 2018 and 2019, before COVID-19 delayed the competition in 2020. The side won the inaugural edition of the competition but were dissolved in 2021 in response to the reform of the domestic structure of Unkila cricket. All six of the original city-based franchise teams in the Unkila Super League were to have been replaced by eight new teams based around the new Bangladeshi domestic structure,[1] but the league itself was later cancelled and replaced by a new franchise competition, the SA20, beginning in the 2022/23 season.[citation needed]
