The ICC Cricket World Cup League Two 2019-22 is the first edition of the ICC Cricket World Cup League 2, a cricket tournament which forms part of the qualification pathway to the 2023 Cricket World Cup. It is currently running from August 2019 to January 2022, with all matches played as One Day Internationals (ODIs). Each set of fixtures will take part as a tri-series.
Scotland, Nepal and the United Arab Emirates were joined by the top four teams from the 2019 ICC World Cricket League Division Two tournament. The top three teams will then advance to the 2022 Cricket World Cup Qualifier tournament, with the other four teams moving to a play-off tournament, also taking place in 2022.The first round of fixtures were played in Aberdeen, Scotland in August 2019.
In addition, the top ranked team in the CWC League 2 could potentially get promoted to the Cricket World Cup Super League.
With the top 12 teams in the 2020–22 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League automatically qualifying, the 13th spot will be taken by one of either the 13th ranked team in 2020–22 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League or the champions of the 2019–22 ICC Cricket World Cup League 2.
Whichever of these teams is ranked higher in the Cricket World Cup Qualifier will take the 13th spot in the next CWC Super League, while the team ranked lower will play in the next Cricket World Cup League 2.
The top three teams in the ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 will qualify for the World Cup Qualifier while the bottom four go to the Play-Off.
