The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Qualifier is one of two global qualifiers that together form the final stages of the qualification process for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022. The Canadian National Cricket team is set to take on the Philippines on the 18th February, followed by Oman on the 19th and Nepal on the 21st February. The successful teams will progress onto the semi-finals and finals the following week, with the two teams that reach the final advancing to the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia later this year.
