The International Cricket Council (ICC) has since announced that the USA will be hosting the 2020 the World T20 American Group A RegionalQualifier from September 16 to 20 of 2018.
Besides USA ,the other competing teams are Canada,Panama,and BBelize.The top two teams will join Bermuda and Cayman Islands in the Americas Regional finals with both teams having already advanced from the Americas Group Regional Qualifier held in Argentina early this year.
Though no city has been selected yet to host for USA,only one ground is needed to play since only 2 matches will be played per day.This means that single -turf-wickets such as Indianapolis,Houston,Fort Lauderdale and North Carolina are possible options aside from the four ground Woodley Park in Los Angeles.It is notified that new members of USA Cricket Registrati0n must wait for further decisions.
All eligible candidatescleared by the nominating and governance committee formed by USA Cricket. was to bwe announced by 13th May 2018 with a view to decide the winners.The result was to be announced by June 11.
Thereafter three independent Directors are to be installed and a 10 member squad be formed before this years ICC Annual conference.A preliminary list of all voting clubs,leagues and other members already released by USA Cricket by April 27
Atleast two members on the new USA Cricket board will be female.(One of the two Elite Player Directors and one of the three independent Directors)
It is a noticeable change from the previous USACA administration,which had no female members while it existed.This is as per the interest of the ICC sustainable Advisory group.They beleve that inclusion of women is a step that will make for stronger and more united board of Directors going forward.
Dr.VincentAdams a member of the ICC sustainable Advisory group said in a USA Cricket Press Release"We have worked incredibly hard to develop a Constitution and a membership base that unites thye wondwefully diverse cricket community in USA and our hopes and expectations are that this diversity is reflected in the inaugural USA Cricket Board and we are really excited to announce this process which we are confident will attract the best possible candidates"
Thus ,soon after establishing a proper cricket council,USA would start taking
Nternational competitions and World Cup arranged by International cricket cricket council
