ICC Confirms 14-Team Format for 2027 Cricket World Cup

The International Cricket Council has officially unveiled the format for the 2027 Cricket World Cup, expanding the tournament to 14 teams across South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia.

The tournament will begin with a qualifying phase where the three lowest-ranked teams among the 14 qualifiers play a "Super series." Only one of these teams will advance to the main event, leaving 12 teams to compete in the subsequent rounds. asg-reflektory.pl

This represents a significant shift from previous editions, which featured a 10-team round-robin league. The revamp aims to manage the expansion while maintaining competitive standards in the host nations.
