The 2022–23 National T20 Cup (also known as Kingdom Valley National T20 Cup 2022-23, for sponsorship reasons) was a Twenty20 domestic cricket competition played in Pakistan.[3] It was the 19th season of the National T20 Cup, with the tournament starting from 30 August 2022 and the final being played on 19 September 2022.[4][5] In August 2022, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) confirmed the fixtures of the tournament.[6] Khyber Pakhtunkhwa were the defending champions.[7]

In August 2022, the Pakistani government announced the return of departmental cricket from the 2023 season,[8] meaning this edition is likely to be the last to be carried out in the current format.

On 25 August 2022, the PCB confirmed all the squads for the tournament.[9]
