Men's T20 World Cup 2020:  how this qualifiers system works.?




 Each group will play a single round robin, with the bottom three teams directly eliminated and the group winners progressing directly to the semi-finals and securing certain qualification.

The second and third-placed teams in each group will play crossover play-offs for the remaining two semi-final berths, with the losers from those matches going on to play off against the 4th-placed teams for each group for a place in the 5th place play-off.

With only six qualification berths on offer, these final "losers' play-offs" will in effect be decisive in determining the final two qualifiers for the main tournament in Australia next year.



What grounds, venues used at the Men's T20 World Cup 2020 qualifiers.



 The 51 matches will be played across four grounds.

Group A's matches will be divided across the two ICC Academy grounds, 1 & 2 grounds and Dubai International Stadium, which will also host the majority of the play-off and knock-out matches.
