The 2011–13 ICC Intercontinental Cup is the sixth edition of the ICC Intercontinental Cup, an international first-class cricket tournament between leading associate members of the International Cricket Council. The tournament will run from June 2011 to October 2013. The format has been changed[1] since the 2009–10 edition. The previous two-division system has been replaced by a single eight-team division, comprising the six teams from 2010 ICC World Cricket League Division One (Afghanistan, Canada, Ireland, Kenya, Netherlands, and Scotland) and the top two teams from 2011 ICC World Cricket League Division Two (Namibia and United Arab Emirates).
