Cricket World Cup Qualifier gets underway in Zimbabwe

The ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 Qualifier will get underway in Zimbabwe today.

A total of 10 nations, hosts Zimbabwe, Ireland, Nepal, Netherlands, Oman, Scotland, Sri Lanka, UAE, USA and West Indies will battle it out for the two remaining places at this year’s ODI World Cup in India.
 
The Cricket World Cup Qualifier will see two groups each made up of five teams playing a round-robin series within their group.

The top three teams in each group then progress to the CWC Qualifier Super Six stage, while carrying over their results from the two matches against the other teams to advance from their initial group.

The teams that progress to the Super Six stage will then play the three teams to advance from their opposite group to complete the pivotal match-ups.

The top two teams at the end of the Super Six stage will book their ticket to the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 in India later this year, while also facing off in a CWC Qualifier Final on July 9.
