2020–21 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Americas Qualifier

The 2020–21 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Americas Qualifier is scheduled to be a tournament played as part of the qualification process for the 2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup, from 18 to 24 August 2020.[1][2] The Americas Qualifier will consist of a single Regional Final, played in Toronto, Canada,[3] with the top two teams progressing to one of two global qualifiers.[4] In April 2018, the International Cricket Council (ICC) granted full international status to Twenty20 men's matches played between member sides from 1 January 2019 onwards. Therefore, all the matches in the Regional Qualifiers will be played as Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is).[5]
