India will host the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup from 9 February to 26 March. After three joint hostings, this will be the first time the competition is held entirely in India. Defending champions England defeated New Zealand in a final in 2019, New Zealand's second consecutive final. The top seven teams in the Super League, plus the hosts (India), will qualify for the World Cup. Five associate teams will compete in the 2023 Cricket World Cup Qualifier, with two teams qualifying for the finals.
