2014 ICC World T20 Logo Launched
The 2014 ICC World T20 to be held in Bangladesh.
The 5th ICC World T20 logo was launched this weekend.
The 2014 ICC World T20 to be held in Bangladesh will be hosted between the 16th March and 6th April next year.
It will be the longest World T20 both in terms of matches and the number of participants.
Pakistan have won 16 out of 26 matches at ICC World T20s.
Pakistan are the only team to reach the final 4 in the 12-team event with 100% consistency so far in the past 4 editions.
Pakistan have a strong record in Bangladesh for tournaments
2000 Asia Cup = Winners
2004 Under 19 World Cup = Winners
2008 Tri Series = Winners
2012 Asia Cup = Winners
Surely we can expect them to reach the semi final or final again?
The 2014 ICC World T20 qualifier will take place in October 2013. UAE will be hosting the event for the 3rd time successively. This tournament will be different to the previous 3 World T20 qualifiers because as many as SIX teams will get the chance to qualify for the finals in Bangladesh April 2014. In the past 4 editions of the ICC World T20 only 2 associates or 3 in the case of 2009 have been allowed to participate in the world finals. 2009 was an exception because Zimbabwe didn’t participate during the event in England. Pakistan, Bangladesh, India and one of the associates will make up one of the four groups at the ICC World T20 2014. This is the 2nd largest ICC tournament currently with the ICC-19 World Cup with both consisting of 16 teams, previously the 2007 World Cup in the West Indies also compromised of 16 teams.
Generally, it is regarded that more associates in the World T20 is better than the World Cup because this is the best opportunity for them to develop and potentially cause a few upsets. In the main World Cup, however if there are not that many teams playing the title loses it’s value. This is the challenge the ICC faces of balancing the two.
Previous World T20 qualifying winners:-
2009 = Ireland and Scotland
2010 = Afghanistan
2012 = Ireland
Associates at the ICC World T20
2007 = Scotland and Kenya
2009 = Ireland, Scotland and Holland
2010 = Ireland and Afghanistan
2012 = Ireland and Afghanistan
2014 = left to be decided
