The McShane integral of functions $fI\to ℝ$ defined on an $m$-dimensional interval $I$ is considered in the paper. This integral is known to be equivalent to the Lebesgue integral for which the Vitali convergence theorem holds. For McShane integrable sequences of functions a convergence theorem based on the concept of equi-integrability is proved and it is shown that this theorem is equivalent to the Vitali convergence theorem.
