The fixtures for the 2019 Cricket World Cup have been confirmed.
The tournament ran from Friday, May 30 until Sunday, July 14, when the final was played at Lord’s.
The 2019 tournament was played under a new structure, not seen since 1992. Instead of 14, or even 16 teams as there were in 2007, it was be reduced to ten teams.
It was be the first time in the tournament’s history Test-playing nations will miss out, with that number being increased to 12 during 2017 after Afghanistan and Ireland were granted Test status.
The format of the tournament saw each team play every other team once in a round robin format, followed by semi-finals and a final. England defeated New Zealand in the final.
