ICC Postpones 3 World Cup League 2 Series Due To Covid-19
The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Friday announced that the three upcoming series in the World Cup League 2, due to take place between March and May, have been postponed because of Covid-19.
The World Cup League 2, which forms part of the qualifying pathway to the 2023 World Cup, was scheduled to see 18 ODIs played across the sixth, seventh and eighth series of the competition.

The postponed series included table-toppers Oman who were due to host second-placed USA and seventh-placed Nepal for six ODIs between March 19 and 28.
The seventh series of the competition scheduled PNG who sit at the foot of the standings to host Oman and third-placed Scotland between April 14 and 24.
The final series which will need to be rescheduled was to see PNG play host again, with USA and fourth-placed Namibia travelling to the Pacific to play six ODIs between May 13 and 23.
"The postponements are due to the current travel restrictions between countries, the quarantine time required before matches and the recent surge in Covid-19 cases," an ICC media release stated.
