Dubai, Jul 5 (Agency) The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Monday said it has commenced the process to identify the hosts for the men’s white-ball events to be held post 2023 and 17 member nations have expressed interest in hosting marquee tournaments during the next eight-year cycle. The hosting of the ICC World Test Championship Final, the ICC women’s and under-19 events in the new cycle will be determined in a separate process that will get underway later this year, the ICC said in a release.

Eight men’s ODI and T20 events, comprising two ICC Men’s Cricket World Cups, four ICC Men’s T20 World Cups and two ICC Champions Trophies, will be staged from 2024-2031 and ICC Members were invited to submit a preliminary technical proposal as a potential host.
