How are these allocated? Do countries express an interest in hosting or just get what they're given?

Just get to draw lots for the tournaments the BCCI don't want

India choose what they want, they have a couple taken off them so not to make it too obvious, then the rest are divyed up.

USA and West Indies, that’s going to be a fuck on for fans to follow isn’t it? Or am I being stupid here

Careful lads someone might be along to "call you out" soon. Although you're not from Yorkshire and assumed racist, and also support Sunderland and/or Durham so allowed to post on here, so perhaps not

You are not. It will be a massive fuck on, but I believe teh ICC see the US as a possible growth market.

Depends what time the games are I suppose. If they're evening over there they'll be overnight here. WI is a good location for following from the UK if games are in the daytime mind

I imagine they will only play at that Florida ground in the US unless they plan on building a few more grounds before then. Still a four or five hour flight from, say, Barbados or Trinidad mind

South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia would be class. Three beautiful country's by all accounts (people on here were raving about watching England in Cape Town).

Best place I've ever been SA. Absolutely loved it. Things you don't get on any other cricket tour (safari mainly), would recommend to anyone

2025-2027 could see those tournaments having to be moved if trouble stirs...hope not, especially for South Africa as it always produces good tournaments

Would be great if the place is stable at that point. Namibia looks great, if not setup for large numbers of tourists

Winter tournament surely as summer will be hurricane season. Couple games in florida and the rest in the Windies.

That's a complete guess

Insane if true. Baseball won that battle 150 years ago

It's largely the huge US South Asian population they're interested in. There's a great podcast by Jarod Kimbar on all things US cricket, past and present, that came out about a month ago that is well worth a listen imo.

Yep, it's seen as the next available market. And let's face it, outside of England, India and Oz even a minor TV deal with US ESPN would blow the rest away.
