International cricket in 2017

The 2017 international cricket season is from May 2017 to September 2017.[1] Currently, 14 Test matches, 53 One-day Internationals (ODIs), 10 Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is), and 31 Women's One Day Internationals (WODIs) are scheduled to be played during this period. The team rankings at the start of this season are yet to be determined.

The season started with a two match ODI series between England and Ireland, followed by a tri-nation ODI series in Ireland (also containing New Zealand and Bangladesh), and a three match ODI series between England and South Africa. These matches served as preparation for the ICC Champions Trophy, which will be held in England in June. This will be the first Champions Trophy that the West Indies will not be participating, due to them having been outside the top 8 in the ODI rankings on the cut-off date of 30 September 2015. This will be immediately followed by the Women's Cricket World Cup, which will also be held in England. After these two major events, international cricket resumes with many bilateral series occurring during the rest of the season. Important series include the 6th edition of the Basil D'Oliveira Trophy and the 26th edition of the Wisden Trophy.

During this season, many important steps of 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup qualification process will be occurring. ODIs occurring between the 12 teams competing in the ICC ODI Championship will be of special importance as only those that are ranked in the top 8 at the end of this season (30 September 2017) will directly qualify for the World Cup. This is different from previous World Cups as Full Members were granted automatic qualification in those tournaments. Those ranked in the bottom four will compete in the 2018 Cricket World Cup Qualifier, which will be held in Bangladesh, and will be joined by the top four teams in the World Cricket League Championship and the top two teams from World Cricket League Division Two. Matches in rounds 5 and 6 of the World Cricket League Championship are scheduled during this season. Also, the World Cricket League Division Three tournament will be held in this season, with the top 2 teams being promoted to Division 2.

In addition, matches in rounds 5 and 6 of the Intercontinental Cup will be scheduled during this season.
