The 2026 ICC Men's T20 World Cup is the tenth edition of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, a biennial world cup for cricket in Twenty20 International (T20I) format, organized by the International Cricket Council (ICC). It is being co-hosted by Board of Control for Cricket in India and Sri Lanka Cricket from 7 February to 8 March 2026. Sri Lanka had previously hosted the competition in 2012 and India in 2016.[3][4][5] The qualification process for the 2026 tournament included two stages: direct qualification and regional qualification. 12 teams were awarded direct qualification while 87 teams took part in the regional qualification to compete for the remaining 8 spots. The regional qualification included series of sub-regional qualifiers and regional finals held between June 2024 and October 2025.[6][7]

The hosts, India and Sri Lanka,[8] along with the top seven teams from the 2024 tournament: Afghanistan, Australia, Bangladesh, England, South Africa, the United States and the West Indies; directly qualified for the 2026 tournament. The remaining three direct qualification places were allocated to the next best-ranked teams in the ICC Men's T20I Team Rankings as on 30 June 2024, that had not finished in the top seven: Ireland, New Zealand and Pakistan.[9] The eight remaining places were filled through the ICC's regional qualifiers: Canada from Americas, Italy and Netherlands from Europe, Namibia and Zimbabwe from Africa, Nepal, Oman and the United Arab Emirates from the combined Asia-EAP final. Italy qualified for the men's T20 World Cup for the first time.[10] Ahead of the 2026 tournament, Bangladesh withdrew from the tournament and were replaced by the next best ranked team in the T20I Rankings: Scotland.[11]

Format

The top eight teams from the previous edition along with the 2026 hosts and the next best two to four teams (depending on the finishing positions of the hosts in the previous edition) from the ICC Men's T20I Team Rankings qualified directly for the tournament.[7] The remaining eight teams were decided by regional qualifiers. Each regional qualifier was held in two stages:[12][13][14][15]

  • Sub-regional qualifiers: This stage comprised one or more tournaments depending on the ICC region. Matches were held in either single round-robin or double round-robin format and sometimes included group stage and knockout stage or playoffs formats as well. The stipulated number of teams advanced into the next stage.
  • Regional final: Top teams unable to earn direct qualification along with teams advancing from the sub-regional qualifier took part in this stage. Matches were held in either single round-robin or double round-robin format and sometimes included group stage and knockout stage or playoffs formats as well. The stipulated number of teams advanced to the 2026 T20 World Cup.
