The 2017–22 ICC World Cricket League (WCL) is the fourth season of ICC World Cricket League, an international cricket tournament composed of five divisions.[1] It serves as a qualification route for the 2023 Cricket World Cup.[2] The divisions will be played in roughly consecutive order, with the lower divisions played first. The top two from each division will gain promotion to the following, higher division, meaning that some teams will play in more than one division during the tournament.[3]

The first tournament, in September 2017, was the 2017 ICC World Cricket League Division Five in South Africa.[4] Jersey beat Vanuatu by 120 runs in the final to win the tournament.[5] The second tournament, the 2018 ICC World Cricket League Division Four, was held during April and May 2018.[6] There was no final for this tournament, after two of the final three matches finished as a no result.[7]
