The qualifier was held for the first time in 2013, with the top three teams qualifiying for the World Cup.[1] The first five editions has featured eight teams, determined by a combination of international rankings, previous World Cup results, and regional qualifiers, with the top two teams qualifying for the World Cup. For the 2024 tournament the number of teams was increased to ten.[2]
Bangladesh have won the tournament on three occasions, winning consecutively in 2018, 2019 and 2022. The first tournament was shared by Pakistan and Sri Lanka when the final ended in a no result,[3] while Ireland won the 2015 tournament. Thailand was the only other team to qualify for a World Cup via the qualifier, having finished runner-up to Bangladesh in 2019.
