The Bermuda leg of ICC CWC Challenge League B 2026 is the most logistically tricky window of the lower-tier ODI pathway. Six teams converge on the National Stadium and the White Hill Field in Sandys for a round-robin block from late June to early July 2026. With the Challenge League acting as a feeder into the CWC Qualifier Playoff, every result here can decide whether a side's ODI cycle stays live.

The fixture grid

Bermuda Cricket Board has confirmed hosting rights and is projected to spread games across two venues to ease pitch wear. Here is the indicative grid.

The National Stadium has hosted ODIs before, with a listed capacity of 8,500. White Hill is smaller, around 3,000, but its reputation as a placid surface for spinners adds variety to the round robin.

Day 1 timings

Bermuda runs on AST year-round. The opener begins at 10:00 a.m. local. The multi-zone clock for the Bermuda vs Hong Kong start is below.

Probable XIs

These are projected based on recent Challenge League squads.

Bermuda: Janeiro Tucker, Delray Rawlins (c), Kamau Leverock, Dion Stovell, Christopher Douglas, Allan Douglas Jr, Tre Manders, Cejay Outerbridge, Malachi Jones, Kwame Tucker (wk), George Reifer.

Hong Kong: Babar Hayat (c), Anshy Rath, Yasim Murtaza, Kinchit Shah, Nizakat Khan, Aizaz Khan, Ehsan Khan, Ehsan Nawaz, Haroon Arshad, Aftab Hussain, Ayush Shukla.

Italy: Gianluca Maestri (c), Joy Perera, Manpreet Singh, Pavansing Brar, Damith Kosala, Akhilraj Vasudevan, Harpreet Singh, Marcus Campopiano, Riccardo Caruso, Naman Doshi, Edoardo Pinna.

Broadcast and streaming

ICC.tv carries the leg globally as the primary feed. FanCode is expected to mirror the stream into India, and SuperSport may pick up the Kenya games regionally. Italy's federation has historically streamed federation feeds on its own YouTube channel, which is likely again. There is no Sky Sports or Star Sports pickup for this tier.

Tickets and venue logistics

Bermuda ticketing is sold via the Bermuda Cricket Board portal, with general admission expected in the $15-25 range and grandstand seating around $50. White Hill is general-admission only. The Hamilton venue is well served by ferry from Dockyard; rental cars are not available to visitors and rideshare options are limited. Plan for taxis or buses.

What this leg means

The points are the story. Bermuda needs to defend home advantage to stay top-three in the table; Hong Kong has been the form side and is targeting the Challenge League Playoff. Kenya, once an ODI side, is fighting to claw back relevance. The leg is also Italy's first big test under its new bilateral coach, fresh off a strong Italy World Cup qualification storyline for context on rising associate momentum.

For pathway architecture, the final-leg context for CWC League 2 shows how the Challenge League winners feed into the higher tier through the playoff.

Expect the ICC's formal fixture release within three weeks. The Bermuda leg is short but tightly packed, and it gives the lower tier of associate cricket a rare turn under the spotlight.
