Per ICC regulations, the 10 ICC full member nations qualify for the tournament automatically. 49 matches will be played in 14 venues with Australia staging 26 games while New Zealand hosts 23 games. The seven teams in two groups play each other once before the top four teams from each group qualify for the quarter-finals.

There will be a Super Over in the Cricket World Cup final if the match finishes as a tie.
