Bhutan Cricket - The Official Website

Bhutan are grouped in Pool B along with host Nepal, United Arab Emirates, Malaysia and Saudi Arabia in the ACC Twenty20 Cup to be held in Nepal. Group A consist of Afghanistan, Hong Kong, Oman, Kuwait and Maldives.

The tournament forms part of the qualifying process for ICC World Twenty20 2012 in Sri Lanka. The top three teams, other than Afghanistan, from this competition join the top six Associate and Affiliate teams with ODI status from 2009-2012 namely Afghanistan, Canada, Ireland, Kenya, Netherlands and Scotland in the 16-team ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier to be played in the UAE in early 2012. The other regional teams in the qualifier will be Europe (2), Africa (2), Americas (2) and East Asia – Pacific (1).

“It’s a long process to get to the World Cup,” says ACC Events Manager Sultan Rana, “and it’s fair to say that the teams who most deserve to get there will do so.”
