Cricket World Cup to revert to 14 teams from 2027
The Hindu
Only 10 sides contested the 2019 World Cup, won by hosts England, compared to 14 four years earlier.
The men’s Cricket World Cup will once again become a 14-team tournament in 2027 and 2031, the International Cricket Council (ICC) said on Tuesday. The changes were announced as the ICC, cricket’s global governing body, unveiled its global schedule of events from 2024-2031. Meanwhile, the Champions Trophy, a ‘mini’ World Cup last staged in 2017, when Pakistan won in England, is to be revived again in 2025 and 2029 as an event for the top-ranked eight one-day international teams.More Related News
