ICC announces hosts of Under-19 global events until 2027 #IndiaNEWS #Cricket
Dubai: Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Thailand, Zimbabwe and Namibia and Bangladesh and Nepal have been announced as host countries of the ICC U19 events from 2024-2027.
The ICC U19 Mens Cricket World Cup 2024 will be hosted by Sri Lanka while the 2026 edition will be staged in Zimbabwe and Namibia. The ICC U19 Womens T20 World Cup 2025 will be held in Malaysia and Thailand, and the 2027 U19 Womens event will be jointly hosted by Bangladesh and Nepal.
The hosts were selected via a competitive bidding process overseen by a Board sub-committee chaired by Martin Snedden. The ICC Board accepted the recommendations of the committee who conducted a review of each bid along with ICC management.
The qualification pathway for the 10-team ICC Womens T20 World Cup 2024 was approved. Eight teams will qualify for the event automatically comprising the top three teams from each group from the ICC Womens T20 World Cup 2023, the host Bangladesh (if not in the top three of Group 1) and the next highest-ranked teams on the ICC T20I Rankings on February 27, 2023. The remaining two teams will be identified through the 10-team ICC Womens T20 World Cup Global Qualifier.
The qualification pathway for the 14-team ICC Mens Cricket World Cup 2027 was also decided with 10 teams gaining automatic qualification. The 10 will comprise South Africa and Zimbabwe as Full Member hosts and the next eight highest-ranked teams on the ICC ODI Rankings on a date to be confirmed. The remaining four teams will qualify via the ICC CWC Global Qualifier.
The Board received an update from the Afghanistan Working Group detailing a recent meeting with a representative of the Afghanistan government and the Afghanistan Cricket Board in Doha. The government official reiterated their commitment to fully respect and comply with the ICC constitution, in particular the need for diversity and inclusivity and for the ACB to operate independent from government interference.
Afghanistan Working Group Chair Imran Khwaja said, The meeting was positive and respectful and the government representative was clear in his support for the ICC constitution including in principle for womens cricket in Afghanistan. There are obviously challenges for it to resume but we will continue to work with the ACB to take this forward.
The Working Group will closely monitor the commitment undertaken by the Afghanistan government and will continue to report back to the ICC Board.
BCCI Honorary Secretary Jay Shah will become Chair of the Finance and Commercial Affairs Committee replacing Cricket Irelands Ross McCollum who has stepped down from the role.
