The 2025 ICC Men's T20 World Cup Europe Regional Final was a cricket tournament that formed part of the qualification process for the 2026 Men's T20 World Cup. It was held in the Netherlands in July 2025.[1][2][3]
Netherlands won the tournament, while Italy qualified for a World Cup for the first time by clinching second place ahead of Jersey on net run-rate after the two teams finished level on points.[4][5]
They will join England and Ireland as Europe's representatives at the 2026 T20 World Cup.[6][7] England qualified directly as a top eight team from the previous edition, while Ireland qualified directly through ICC Men's T20I Team Rankings.[8][9]
