The '''Associate Team Rankings''' is an international '''[[One Day International|ODI]]''' and [[Twenty20 International|'''T20I''']] rankings system of the [[International Cricket Council]] (ICC) for its [[List of International Cricket Council members|associate nations]]. Currently, the top 8 associate teams, out of total 96, have temporary [[One Day International|ODI status]], which means matches played against fellow associates with same status and [[List of International Cricket Council members|full-members]] will be recognized as an official ODI game, and also allows them to feature in the [[ICC Men's ODI Team Rankings|main rankings]] table. The rest of the associate teams will have no official ODI rankings but will be ranked according to their performances in the leagues they're competing in, which are part of [[2027 Cricket World Cup qualification|Cricket World Cup qualification]]. Meanwhile, all associate members of ICC are granted T20I status and thus feature in the main rankings table.

The '''Associate Team Rankings''' is an international '''one-day''' rankings system of the [[International Cricket Council]] (ICC) for its [[List of International Cricket Council members|associate nations]]. Currently, the top 8 associate teams, out of total 96, have temporary [[One Day International|ODI status]], which means matches played against fellow associates with same status and [[List of International Cricket Council members|full-members]] will be recognized as an official ODI game, and also allows them to feature in the [[ICC Men's ODI Team Rankings|main rankings]] table.

Revision as of 06:59, 18 June 2024

The Associate Team Rankings is an international ODI and T20I rankings system of the International Cricket Council (ICC) for its associate nations. Currently, the top 8 associate teams, out of total 96, have temporary ODI status, which means matches played against fellow associates with same status and full-members will be recognized as an official ODI game, and also allows them to feature in the main rankings table. The rest of the associate teams will have no official ODI rankings but will be ranked according to their performances in the leagues they're competing in, which are part of Cricket World Cup qualification. Meanwhile, all associate members of ICC are granted T20I status and thus feature in the main rankings table.

History

In late 2005, the International Cricket Council ranked the top non-Test nations from 11–30 to complement the Test nations' rankings in the ICC ODI Championship. The ICC used the results from the 2005 ICC Trophy and WCQS Division 2 competition (i.e. the primary qualification mechanisms for the 2007 Cricket World Cup) to rank the nations.

These rankings were used to seed the initial stage of the global World Cricket League. Teams ranked 11–16 were placed into Division 1; teams 17–20 were placed into Division 2; teams 21–24 were placed into Division 3; the remaining teams were placed into the upper divisions of their respective regional qualifiers.

In 2005, six associates were assigned One Day International status, based on their performance at the preceding World Cup Qualifier. In 2017, Afghanistan and Ireland were both promoted to "Full" (test-match) status,[1] leaving only four associate nations with ODI-status: after mid-March 2018 these were Scotland, Netherlands, UAE, and Nepal.[2] Netherlands, as winners of the 2015–17 ICC World Cricket League Championship, have qualified for a place in the 2020–22 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League. In May 2009, the ICC added a rankings table for the associate and affiliate members containing both global and regional placings.[3] In 2016 this changed to maintain a global list only for the top teams and a set of regional lists for the remaining teams.

ODI Rankings

The global rankings of 20 associate teams according to ICC are published in the table below. These teams are part of exclusive one-day leagues organized by ICC for Cricket World Cup qualification. Teams that have One Day International status are now included on the main ICC Men's ODI Team Rankings and are listed in the order they appear on that table.[4] The other teams are ranked by their finishing position in the most recent leagues & qualifying tournaments, part of 2027 Cricket World Cup Qualification.
