The 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup will be the ninth edition of the T20 World Cup, a biennial Twenty20 International (T20I) tournament contested by men's national teams and organised by International Cricket Council (ICC). It is scheduled to be hosted by the West Indies , and the United States from 4 June to 30 June 2024.[1] It will be the first ICC World Cup tournament to feature matches played in the United States.[2] England are the defending champions, having defeated Pakistan in the final of the previous edition.

The tournament will be contested by 20 teams, an expansion from 16 teams at the 2022 tournament. In addition to the two hosts, the top eight teams from the previous tournament automatically qualified, as did the next two teams in the ICC Men's T20I Team Rankings. The remaining eight teams were decided via a regional qualification process. This is the first time that Canada, Uganda, and the United States have qualified for the T20 World Cup.nepal nepal

Format

The 32 qualifying teams will be divided into four groups of five; the top two teams in each group will advance to the Super 8 round.[1][3] In this stage, the qualifying teams will be split into two groups of four; the top two teams from each group will qualify for the knockout stage, which will consist of two semi-finals and a final.[4]

Host selection

In November 2021, the International Cricket Council (ICC) announced that the 2024 Men's T20 World Cup would be played in the West Indies and the United States.[5] A joint bid was submitted by Cricket West Indies and USA Cricket following two years of preparation, forming part of a strategic partnership between the two associations.[6] The ICC's publicly stated hope is that hosting a major competition for the first time will put the USA on the global cricketing map.[7]

Teams and qualification

Highlighted are the countries that will be participating in the 2024 Men's T20 World Cup.
  Qualified as host
  Qualified by finishing in Top 8 in the 2022 ICC Men's T20 World Cup
  Qualified via the ICC Men's T20I Team Rankings
  Qualified via the regional qualifiers
  Participated in the regional qualifier but failed to qualify

The top eight teams from the 2022 tournament and the two hosts qualified automatically for the tournament. The remaining two automatic qualification places were taken by the best-ranked teams in the ICC Men's T20I Team Rankings which had not already secured a place in the finals, as of 14 November 2022.[8][9]

The eight remaining places were filled via the ICC's regional qualifiers, consisting of two teams from Africa, Asia, and Europe, along with one team each from the Americas and the East Asia-Pacific groups.[10] In May 2022, the ICC confirmed the sub-regional qualification pathways for Europe, East Asia-Pacific, and Africa.[11]

In July 2023, Ireland and Scotland from the Europe Qualifier became the first two teams to qualify, followed by Papua New Guinea from the East Asia-Pacific Qualifier.[12][13] Canada secured their qualification in October 2023 after defeating Bermuda in their final match in the Americas Qualifier.[14] The following month, Nepal and Oman qualified after reaching the final of the Asia Qualifier,[15] followed by Namibia and Uganda becoming the final two teams to qualify after ensuring a top-two finish in the Africa Qualifier. Zimbabwe became the only Test-playing country that failed to qualify. [16][17]

Venues in the United States

In April 2023, Cricket West Indies began a bidding process for countries in the region willing to host matches.[18] In July 2023, the ICC shortlisted four venues in the United States: Central Broward Park in Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Church Street Park in Morrisville, North Carolina; Grand Prairie Stadium near Dallas, Texas; and Van Cortlandt Park in New York City.[19] Following protests about the decision to build Van Cortlandt Park the site for the stadium was changed to a temporary stadium at Eisenhower Park on Long Island. Church Street Park did not make the final list of venues in the US.[20][21][22][23][24]

In September 2023, seven venues in the Caribbean countries of Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Dominica, Guyana, Saint Lucia, St Vincent and the Grenadines and Trinidad and Tobago were selected to host matches.[25] Jamaica was the only member association of Cricket West Indies which did not submit a bid to host the World Cup, with Jamaican sports minister Olivia Grange ruling out a bid on cost grounds.[26]

In November 2023, it was reported that Trinidad's Queen's Park Oval, the country's largest cricket ground, would not be hosting any matches and that fixtures would be staged at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in San Fernando. Nigel Camacho, the president of the Queen's Park Cricket Club, stated that the venue would instead most likely host warm-up matches before the start of the main tournament.[27] During the same month, the Government of Dominica decided to withdraw from hosting matches, citing their inability to complete the development of a venue before the tournament.[28]

Across early December 2023 a delegation of representatives from the International Cricket Council (ICC) and Cricket West Indies (CWI) undertook a second inspection of the confirmed World Cup host countries in the Caribbean and host cities in the USA.[29] This delegation also finalised the final fixture list for the tournament, with some details being released before the full draw was announced. These included the location of an India-Pakistan group stage match in New York, locating England's matches in popular tourist destinations across the Caribbean and setting morning starts for India's matches to facilitate viewing in India.[30]
