The International Cricket Council (ICC) has announced that South Korea, Indonesia and Samoa will host the 2024 East Asia Pacific (EAP) ICC Pathway Events.

This is the first time that South Korea will have hosted an ICC event.

The Pathway Events will take place in four locations across the EAP with all nine Associate Members of the EAP participating in at least one event.

The first event to be played will be the ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup EAP Qualifier in Indonesia, which will be hosted in Bali in May 2024.

The four-team EAP will feature the inaugural event of the 2024 ICC World Cup in Bali, as well as the second-ever ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup EAP Qualifier.

The 2024 ICC World Cup will be played in five locations, with qualifying tournaments taking place in a variety of formats.

The 2024 ICC will be a landmark event that celebrates the 10th anniversary of cricket’s inclusion in the 2014 Asian Games held in Incheon, South Korea.
