Dubai: Pakistan and West Indies have failed to get direct qualification for the 2019 ICC World Cup, after they were placed at the eighth and ninth position in the ICC ODI rankings respectively, on Wednesday.
The two teams completed a three-match ODI series on Tuesday, which the Pakistanis won 2-1. West Indies had gotten off to a good start in the tournament, after they chased down a target of 309, their highest successful run chase in ODI history.
However, Pakistan came back in the next two games, to clinch the series 2-1.
Unfortunately for Pakistan, they needed a 3-0 win against the Windies, in order to get direct qualification for the 2019 50-over World Cup.
Bangladesh, on the other hand, qualified for the World Cup, after finishing seventh in the ICC ODI Rankings.
However, both West Indies and Pakistan will get another shot at qualifying for the 2019 Wold Cup, if they do well in the 10-team ICC world Cup Qualifiers, next year.
The ODI rankings on May 1, 2017 will be taken into consideration, while determining which sides directly qualify for the World Cup. In order to ensure that the rankings are based upon the recent matches, the games between May 1, 2014 to May 1, 2017 will be considered for the standings.
South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, India, England, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh are the seven countries to have qualified for the 2019 world Cup, as of yet.
