The 2022 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Global Qualifier B was a cricket tournament that was played in July 2022 in Zimbabwe,[1][2] as one of two global tournaments that together formed the final stage of the qualification process for the 2022 ICC Men's T20 World Cup.[3][4][5] In April 2018, the International Cricket Council (ICC) granted full international status to Twenty20 men's matches played between member sides from 1 January 2019 onwards. Therefore, all the matches in the Global Qualifiers were played as Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is).[6] Global Qualifier B was contested by eight teams that advanced from their Regional Finals, were eliminated in the first round of the 2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup, or were one of the highest ranked sides not already qualified to this stage.[7][8] The eight teams were placed in two groups, with two sides from each group advancing to the semi-finals. The two teams that reached the final of the Global Qualifier advanced to the 2022 ICC Men's T20 World Cup in Australia.[9]

The United States and Jersey announced that they would play a series of practice games against each other and Namibia in Windhoek before travelling to Zimbabwe.[10] In June 2022, the ICC confirmed the full schedule for the Global Qualifier B tournament.[11]
In Group A, United States and Zimbabwe both won their first two matches to secure their places in the semi-finals of the tournament.[12] The Netherlands won their first two matches in Group B to also qualify for the semi-finals.[13] Despite losing their final group match, Papua New Guinea became the fourth and final team to qualify for the semi-finals, due to a superior net run rate over Hong Kong.[14] The Netherlands and Zimbabwe reached the final of the tournament to qualify for the 2022 ICC Men's T20 World Cup.[15] Hosts Zimbabwe beat the Netherlands by 37 runs in the final to win the tournament.[16]

Sub-regional qualification stages were scheduled to begin on 24 June 2021 with the European qualifier in Finland.[17][18] But a number of these regional tournaments were either postponed or cancelled owing to the COVID-19 pandemic.[19] A total of 65 Associate Member teams participated in the regional qualification stage. The teams that advanced from this stage, joined Singapore and Zimbabwe, who had qualified via T20I rankings along with Netherlands and Papua New Guinea who qualified via the 2021 Men's T20 World Cup.[7][20]
