- Twelve teams representing both known cricketing powers and developing nations have already confirmed their participation in the 2024 T20 Cricket World Cup.
- The ICC will hold regional qualifiers to select a qualification schedule for the remaining eight competing nations. They will include one team from the Americas, one from East Asia-Pacific, and two from Africa, Asia, and Europe.
