After nearly two years of COVID restrictions that forced the majority of cricketers in the Maldives to take a back seat, the Cricket Board of Maldives (CBM) has announced that it will be organizing two calendars of cricket tournaments for the Ekuveni and Fuvahmulah cricket grounds in the Maldives for the year 2023.
The tournaments and events that took place in 2022 were a huge success, and the CBM is excited to offer more opportunities for competitive cricket for Maldives’ cricketers in 2023.
The Maldives has always been an active participant in an international cricket tournament, with the country featuring prominently in numerous regional and global tournaments. In addition to local events, the Maldives will also host the 2023 Milo Ramadan Cricket Carnival – Fuvahmulah Tournament.
The 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup Maldives, the thirteenth version of the One Day Global (ODI) cricket competition challenged by men’s public groups and coordinated by the Worldwide Cricket Board (ICC), is booked to be facilitated by India from 5 October to 19 November 2023.
The final dates are still a matter of speculation, as the ICC had previously announced the final would be held on 13 November 2023. The Maldives is set to host numerous cricket events in 2023, including local tournaments organized by the Cricket Board of Maldives and the 2023 Milo Ramadan Cricket Carnival – Fuvahmulah Tournament.
Additionally, the Maldives cricket team is proud to be a part of the 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, one of the most prominent cricket tournaments in the world. With these events set to take place, Maldives’ cricketers and cricket enthusiasts can look forward to an exciting year ahead.
