Check the list of upcoming ICC World Cup hosts and explore the chances of Pakistan securing a major cricket event in the future."/><p>The ICC has released the hosts for future tournaments, and to our bad luck, Pakistan is not on the list. This has disappointed many fans, as they were expecting a big ICC event in the country.</p><p><strong>Upcoming ICC Events:</strong></p><table><tbody><tr><th>Year</th><th>Tournament</th><th>Host Countries</th></tr><tr><td>2026</td><td>T20 World Cup</td><td>India & Sri Lanka</td></tr><tr><td>2027</td><td>ODI World Cup</td><td>South Africa, Zimbabwe & Namibia</td></tr><tr><td>2028</td><td>T20 World Cup</td><td>Australia & New Zealand</td></tr><tr><td>2030</td><td>T20 World Cup</td><td>England, Ireland & Scotland</td></tr><tr><td>2031</td><td>ODI World Cup</td><td>India & Bangladesh</td></tr></tbody></table><p><strong>ALSO SEE: <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/ecb-director-rob-key-has-suggested-england-to-bring-back-the-combination-of-bazzball-in-odis-from-retirement/">ECB Director Rob Key Has Suggested England to bring back the combination of bazzball in ODIs from retirement</a></strong></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Upcoming ICC Events<br><br>26 T20 WC – India & Sri Lanka<br>27 ODI WC – SA, Zimbabwe & Namibia<br>28 T20 WC – Australia & New Zealand<br>30 T20 WC – England, Ireland & Scotland<br>31 ODI WC – India & Bangladesh<br><br>Hope Pakistan gets more ICC events after 2031, especially a T20 World Cup.

Large-scale events such as those organized by ICC would need significant arrangements, and issues of security and logistics could have been the reasons why Pakistan was not assigned a big event this time.</p><p><strong>The Hope for the Future</strong></p><p>Pakistan is a cricket-crazy country with ardent fans and fabulous stadiums. Organizing a T20 World Cup here would be an experience to remember. With time, things could be different, and hopefully, Pakistan will have the opportunity to host a major ICC event after 2031.</p><p>Until then, the fans will just keep supporting their side and waiting for cricket's biggest events to come back to Pakistan sooner rather than later!</p>]]></content:encoded> </item> </channel> </rss>
