ICC EVENTS AND AWARDS



This is a list of major tournaments that the ICC runs.
ICC Cricket World Cup
The ICC Cricket World Cup is the showpiece event of the cricket calendar and takes place every four years, with matches contested in a 50 overs per side format. The 2011 event took place in Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka and was won by India. The 2015 event will take place in Australia and New Zealand.

ICC Test Championship 
In October 2010, the ICC Board approved the recommendations from the ICC Chief Executives' Committee (CEC). These recommendations seek to give exciting content and context for international cricket within the Future Tours Programme (FTP) after 2012 and also to consider future ICC events. The Board agreed that the FTP should consist of a Test league to provide context for all Test matches and that the league, based on the Reliance ICC Rankings Table, would determine the top four teams to qualify for an ICC Test play-off. It also agreed that the play-off should be held once every four years to determine the Test champion team. It has been agreed that the first ICC Test Championship will be held in 2017.

ICC Champions Trophy
The ICC organises a second 50-overs per side event in addition to the ICC Cricket World Cup called the ICC Champions Trophy, which takes place every two years. The event, formally known as the ICC Knockout, has been contested six times and Australia is the only side to have won the competition on two occasions. The next event will be held in England in 2013.

The second event was won by Pakistan in the men's competition and by England in the women's event which was played for the first time. West Indies hosted the next event in April-May 2010 which was won by England while Australia picked up the women's title. The next event will take place in Sri Lanka in 2012, while Bangladesh will host the tournament in 2014.


ICC Women's World Cup
The ICC Women's World Cup was staged in Sydney, Australia in March 2009 and was the first to be played under the auspices of the ICC since its merger with the International Women's Cricket Council (IWCC) in 2005. England claimed the title with a thrilling four-wicket victory over a spirited New Zealand. The next event will be held in India in 2013.
