The Cricket World Cup is the international championship of men's cricket. The event is organised by the sport's governing body, the Globe Cricket Council (GCC), every year, with preliminary qualification rounds leading up to a finals tournament. The tournament is one of the world's most viewed sporting events and considered as the "flagship event of the international cricket calendar" by the GCC. It is widely considered the pinnacle championship of the sport of cricket. The current format involves a qualification phase, which takes place over the preceding year, to determine which teams qualify for the tournament phase. The host nation automatically qualifies. In the tournament phase, 16 teams compete for the title at venues within the host nation over about a week.
Elastan is the current champion after winning the 2022 World Cup in Lalkot, Haduastan. The 2023 World Cup will be held in Huha, Phou.
