The 2012 ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier will be played in early 2012 and is a part of ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier series. This edition of the qualifier for the 2012 ICC World Twenty20 will be an expanded version comprising ten qualifiers from regional Twenty20 tournaments in addition to the six ODI/Twenty20 status countries.[1] It will be staged in the UAE in the early part of 2012.

ICC Associate and Affiliate Members from across the globe will have the opportunity to qualify for the ICC World Twenty20 2012 in Sri Lanka. Regional qualifying events will be held across the five regions to provide a qualifying pathway to the 16-team qualifier which will take place in early 2012 in the United Arab Emirates. The six Associate/Affiliate Members with ODI status - Afghanistan, Canada, Ireland, Kenya, Netherlands and Scotland - have automatically qualified for this event.

Three teams from the Asia region, two teams from Africa, Americas and Europe, and one team from East Asia-Pacific will have the opportunity to qualify for the ICC World Twenty20 2012 global qualifier. Some ODI status Associate/Affiliate sides will take part in these qualifying events, along with emerging teams from ICC Full Members (e.g. South Africa and Zimbabwe). In such cases, the highest placed Associate and Affiliate sides from these events will progress to the global qualifier, based on the qualifying spots available, which are outlined above.[2]

Qualified Teams

The qualified ten teams from regional twenty20 competitions will play the 2012 World Twenty20 Qualifier along with the six associate teams that are automatically qualified. Originally, after the cut of associates from the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 , it was decided to give associates more of a chance in Twenty20 format and expanded the main tournament to 16 teams with top 6 teams from the Qualifier going to the World Cup but after the re-inclusion of Associates in the 50-Over World Cup in 2015, the earlier format will retained and only the top two teams from this event will play in 2012 ICC World Twenty20.
