This time 14 teams will be included in the ICC ODI World Cup 2027. Before this, a total of 10 teams had participated in the last two editions of the ODI World Cup. This time all the 14 teams will be divided into two groups of seven teams each. After this, after playing league stage matches, the top three teams from both the groups will make it to the Super Six. After this there will be a war for Super-4. The top 2 teams of both the groups will get a place in the semi-finals.
This time, being full members in the ICC ODI World Cup 2027, South Africa and Zimbabwe have automatically qualified. But Namibia cricket team is still in the qualification process. Now when will the official schedule of this World Cup be announced? Only time will tell.
