Netherlands Cricket to host 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Europe Qualifier in July 2025

Koninklijke Nederlandse Cricket Bond (KNCB) will be hosting the Men’s National teams of Scotland, Jersey, Italy and Guernsey in the 5-team Europe Qualifier tournament for the 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup from July 05th – 11th, 2025 at Voorburg Cricket club ground. The teams will be competing for two (2) qualification spots into the main event in India and Sri Lanka, in a single round-robin group stage format, from which the top two (2) teams will qualify for the main event.

Scotland and Netherlands were direct entrants into the Qualifier based on their participation and final finishing position in the 2024 edition of the tournament in the USA and the Caribbean Islands, while the teams of Jersey, Italy and Guernsey qualified through the three (2) Sub-regional Qualifiers held during June – August 2024.

Chief Executive of (KNCB) Lucas Hendrikse “The KNCB is looking forward to hosting a busy summer of international tournament cricket in 2025. Alongside our CWC League 2 hosting commitments, we are proud to be hosting pinnacle European events for both the Men’s and Women’s T20 World Cup pathways. It is always a pleasure to welcome high-quality teams to the Netherlands, and this summer promises many opportunities to watch live cricket across our fantastic international venues.”
