The 2013 ICC World Cup Qualifier is a cricket tournament that will take place in 2013 in Scotland. Originally this tournament was intended to be the final qualification tournament for the 2015 Cricket World Cup. However, the International Cricket Council has since announced that the 2015 World Cup will be restricted to the 10 full member nations, with no qualification.[1]
The tournament is the renamed version of the ICC Trophy, and will be the final event of the 2009-13 World Cricket League.
