Emirates Cricket Board (ECB) will be hosting the Men’s National teams from United States of America (USA) and Nepal for an ODI Tri-series from October 26th – November 05th, 2025, which will be the fifteenth (15th) round of the 2027 ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 cycle (Qualification pathway tournament towards 2027 CWC Global Qualifier). Top four (4) after completion of 36 ODIs for all in the CWC League 2 Championship will qualify directly for 2027 Men’s Cricket World Cup Qualifier (CWCQ). Bottom four (4) teams in the points table will then compete in CWC Qualifier Play-off tournament, along with four (4) teams from the Challenge League competitions (Top 2 teams from both groups) for four (4) spots in CWCQ.
As per the original Men’s Associate FTP, T20Is (either a Tri-series or Bi-lateral) were scheduled as part of each Tri-series in the CWC League 2 ODI Championship, but it depends on the participating boards on their own arrangements, as it is not part of ICC funding. Nepal and UAE will be coming into this ODI Tri-series, after having taken part in the 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Asia-EAP Qualifier.

One thought on “UAE Cricket to host USA and Nepal for ODI Tri-series in October/November 2025”
You guys haven’t got the official squad yet, so you just included all the current players. According to ICC rules, only 15 players can be part of the official squad. The rest are reserves and can’t be part of the main squad. So if you mention 18 players, all 18 can’t be in the playing XI — you can only choose from the 15 in the official squad.
