Thread for qualification for the Women's 2025 and Men's 2027 World Cups.
The men's qualification process is byzantine, so I will need some time to set it all down
But all of OTF can be confident this thread will be full of updates from crucial matches like today's Italy vs Bermuda game that garnered such engagement in the T20 World Cup qualifcation threads.
The Women's World Cup is much simpler. 8 teams qualify (it will be expanding after this edition), India qualify as hosts. Next 5 teams qualify from the 2022–2025 ICC Women's Championship which you will all doubtless be familiar with. Currently the table is as below, with England only scraping in as the lowest of the 5 non-Indian qualifying teams.
Everyone will play 24 games, England's remaining series are at home to Pakistan, and away in Ireland, NZ and South Africa.
The four teams that fail to make it will go into the Global Qualifer. Who else will join have the opportunity to join them in this prestigious tournament with 2 World Cup final places at stake. God only knows. The internet doesn't seem to.
