In short

  • The 2027 Cricket World Cup qualifier playoff will take place in Kathmandu.
  • Matches are scheduled to run from 4 December to 21 December.
  • The top four teams will advance to the main qualifier in South Africa and Namibia.

Kathmandu has been chosen as the venue for the upcoming 2027 one-day Cricket World Cup qualifier playoff tournament. According to the scheduled dates, the matches will run from 4 December through to 21 December. A total of eight teams are expected to participate in the competition. The tournament holds significant importance as the top four finishing teams will earn advancement to the main 50-over World Cup qualifier. That broader qualifying event is scheduled to take place in Namibia and South Africa ahead of the 2027 tournament. Because the playoff event will be held in the country, adjustments are required for another fixture. The schedule for the cricket series between India 'A' and the home side, which had been set for 9 December, 11 December, and 13 December, will be changed.
