Who will host the 2023 World Cup?
The 2023 Cricket World Cup (officially ICC Cricket World Cup 2023) will be the 13th edition of the Cricket World Cup, scheduled to be hosted by India, from 9 February to 26 March 2023. This will be the first time the competition is held completely in India (three previous editions were partially hosted there – 1987, 1996, and 2011). QualificationAs with the previous edition, the tournament will feature ten teams. The main route to qualification will be the new ICC ODI League tournament, which replaces the ICC ODI Championship. For the World Cup, the top seven sides plus the hosts (India) from the thirteen competitors in the League will qualify automatically. The remaining five teams, along with an undecided number of Associate sides, will play in the 2022 Cricket World Cup Qualifier from which two sides will go through to the final tournament.
The tournament is supposed to take place in the summer of 2023, when temperatures in Qatar are usually too extreme to play football. With the World Cup in Qatar just weeks away, the country was selected Monday as host of the 2023 Asian Cup by the Asian Football Confederation. Qatar beat bids from South Korea and Indonesia in a short-notice contest to replace China and host a tournament that could yet be played in 2024. The 2023 Asian Cup is set to be played from June 16 to July 16 – when the desert heat in Qatar is so extreme that the World Cup had to be moved to November and December. Qatar hosted the 2011 Asian Cup in January that year and now becomes the first country to host the continental championship three times after also staging the event in 1988. The Qatari men's team will be aiming to defend the title it won in 2019 in the United Arab Emirates. China was originally scheduled to hold the 24-team event in 2023 but gave up hosting rights in May because of the country’s "Zero-Covid" policies to contain the Covid-19 pandemic, leaving the AFC looking for replacements. "Given the short lead time in preparation, we know that the hard work begins immediately but with their existing world-class infrastructure and unrivaled hosting capabilities, we are confident that Qatar will stage a worthy spectacle befitting the prestige and stature of Asia’s crown jewel," AFC President Sheik Salman bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa said in a statement. Qatar's win Monday offered good news for neighboring Saudi Arabia which is bidding to host the 2027 Asian Cup, in a contest that is now a two-bid race with India. That 2027 contest originally included Qatar and Iran, whose football federation withdrew its candidacy last Thursday, the AFC said. No reason was cited, although Iran has experienced a month of street protests in support of women's rights after the death in police custody of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini. The AFC will need to seek FIFA agreement and likely a decision from the sport's world body's ruling Council to amend the international match calendar and find new dates for the 2023 Asian Cup. That process could raise tension with European clubs which typically object to football's continental championships being moved to their midseason from June slots. However, fewer Europe-based players are needed for the Asian Cup than had to leave their clubs for the African Cup of Nations that was played in Cameroon in January. That tournament also was moved from an intended slot in June.
