ICC Cricket World Cup 2019

Hosted by England and Wales, the 12th Edition of the ICC Cricket World Cup started from 30th May to 14th July. The final will be played at Lord’s on 14th July. It’s the fifth time that the Cricket World Cup is held at England and Wales. With 10 teams battling it out for the Trophy, the tournament will be nail-biting finish as there are no favorites for the exciting tournament. It was Australia who became winners last time around beating New Zealand by seven wickets at their own turf.

For the first time, the tournament is of 10 teams, with each team playing the other nine once and the final four advancing into the semifinals. The current format received huge criticism after the minnows namely; Zimbabwe, Scotland, Ireland, the Netherlands and the UAE didn’t get the chance to feature in the tournament. It’s ICC’s gradual change to shrink the World Cup as it was 16 teams in 2011, 14 in 2015 and now 10 in 2019.
