2017–2019 World Cricket League

A series of ICC World Cricket League tournaments were played between 2017 and 2019 and were the last tournaments of the World Cricket League. There were four divisions, numbered two to five.^[1] The divisions were played in roughly consecutive order, with the lower divisions played first. The top two from each division will gain promotion to the following, higher division, meaning that some teams will play in more than one division during the tournament.^[2]
