ICC Cricket World Cup Challenger League Play-off 2024: Full schedule, squads, match timings and live streaming details

The Malaysian Cricket Association (MCA) is all set to host the ICC Cricket World Cup Challenger League Playoff, starting on February 22, Thursday. Three different venues in Malaysia will host all the games of the campaign.

This eight-team tournament is part of the CWC Qualification pathway event for the 2027 ICC Cricket World Cup, which is set to be held in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia.

The bottom two placed teams from the ICC CWC Challenge League Groups (A and B) will form four out of the eight sides in this campaign.

The other four sides are countries from the bottom of the two groups in the Challenge League in a playoff competition, who meet the requirements of having a minimum of eight domestic teams playing regular cricket and being in the top 40 of the ICC T20I Rankings as of September 30, 2023.

Bermuda, Italy, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia are part of Group A while Bahrain, Malaysia, Tanzania, and Vanuatu will be a part of Group B.

Each side will play the other side in their respective groups once in a single round-robin format. The top three sides from each group will then move to the Super Sixes stage. The top-placed teams at the end of the Super Sixes stage will advance to the Challenge League.
