ICC Eyes 2032-35 With Annual Global Cricket Events
13 Nov
Summary
- ICC plans a global event each year from 2032 to 2035.
- 2033 will feature two global events: WTC final and Champions Trophy.
- Venues and formats for upcoming ICC events remain undecided.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) members, currently meeting in Bali, are expected to ratify a global events calendar for the 2032-35 period. This new schedule aims to feature a major international tournament annually. The proposed calendar kicks off with the T20 World Cup in October-November 2032.
The year 2033 is slated to host two significant global events: the World Test Championship (WTC) final in June, followed by an eight-team Champions Trophy in October. Further into the cycle, another T20 World Cup is planned for July 2034, with the WTC final and ODI World Cup scheduled for 2035.
Crucially, the ICC has not yet designated specific venues or confirmed the exact formats for several of these upcoming global tournaments, including the 2033 Champions Trophy and the 2035 WTC final and ODI World Cup. This lack of venue specification may fuel speculation about potential host locations.
Discussions are also underway regarding the review of franchise leagues and the distribution of approximately USD 650 million in revenue among member boards for the current cycle, following existing sharing formulas.
