With Italy and the Netherlands joining the ranks, a total of 15 teams have now officially qualified for the 20-team World Cup event

With 15 nations already locked in, the road to the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 is almost complete. The remaining five spots will be determined by the end of the regional qualifiers later this year, as cricket fans worldwide prepare for another thrilling edition of the tournament.

Despite a win for the Netherlands, Italy's net run rate advantage meant that both sides qualified for the mega event in India and Sri Lanka next year.
