Dubai: The International Cricket Council (ICC) has confirmed the host nations for the ICC events between 2024 and 2031.

Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) stands to host three ICC events; 2026 T20 World Cup, 2029 Champions Trophy and the 2031 ODI World Cup (alongside Bangladesh).

The USA and Namibia will host an ICC World Cup event for the first time.

The USA will host ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in June 2024 alongside the West Indies. Champions Trophy 2025 will take place in Pakistan. For the first time since 1996 Pakistan will host major ICC tournament. They last hosted the 1996 World Cup along with India and Sri Lanka.

Namibia, which has shown tremendous progress in the recent times, will host the Men’s Cricket World Cup 2027 for the first time alongside Zimbabwe and South Africa.

England will share T20 World Cup hosting duties with Ireland and Scotland in 2030.

Following the selection of the country, the international cricket body said, "The hosts were selected via a competitive bidding process overseen by a Board sub-committee chaired by Martin Snedden along with Sourav Ganguly and Ricky Skerritt.

"The ICC Board accepted the recommendations of the committee, who conducted a thorough review of each bid along with ICC management. A similar process to identify the hosts for ICC Women's and U19s events for the next cycle will be undertaken early next year," the statement added. (UNI)
