The interest of Zimbabwe, Espncricinfo, was confirmed, after successfully hosting the last two ODI World Cup qualifiers (in 2018 and 2023), comes on a back of intentions to promote himself as a destination for Big Cricket. The country last hosted the World Cup with South Africa and Kenya in 2003.
Since then, Zimbabwe has isolated many years from major events, including Robert Mugabe regime, cutting itself from most parts of the world, a self-tested test interval between Hyperflination, 2005 and 2011 , And the men’s team failed to qualify for two gradual. ODI World Cup and two of the last three T20 World Cups. The women’s team has never competed in the World Cup (neither is the UAE) and this year’s program will not have either feature, but Zimbabwe is keen to be a neutral host of the tournament.
Zimbabwe will co -condemn the men’s Under -19 World Cup with Namibia in 2026 and ODI with South Africa and Namibia in 2027. Till then, the country will have two more international grounds with Zimbabwe Cricket and local government officials who are working together. Create multi -purpose features in Victoria Falls and Matare.
For now, Zimbabwe 2024 can offer Harare Sports Club (which also has newly established floodlights) and Queens Sports Club in Bulleveyo as places for the Women’s T20 World Cup. These base hosted all television matches in the 2023 World Cup qualifiers, with streaming games held at Takashinga Sports Club and Bulwayo Athletic Club.
The weather in Zimbabwe is expected to be a major sales point in which the country is entering summer in October and is expected to have minimal rainfall. India rejected the hosts offer as the country would experience the final monsoon experience. Sri Lanka is also understood that the weather was out of dispute due to weather -related reasons.
Seriously, Zimbabwe will be able to produce a fairly good crowd, which includes school children at places, where the maximum capacity is 10,000. A concern with the United Arab Emirates as a location is a shortage of audiences in stadiums that can give seats to more than 20,000 people. Zimbabwe also hopes that the relatively low cost of hosting a tournament in his country compared to the UAE will give him an advantage when the final decision is a final decision.
