ICC Women's T20 World Cup Americas Qualifier (United States) 2021/22

The ICC Women's T20 World Cup Americas Qualifier serves as the regional qualifying tournament for the ICC Women's T20 World Cup, organized by the International Cricket Council (ICC). First held in 2019, the tournament operates as the top-tier regional pathway for women's cricket in the Americas, determining which team advances to the Global Qualifiers for the World Cup. The structure has evolved since its inception. The 2019 edition featured a two-team best-of-three series between the USA and Canada, won by the USA (3-0). Since 2021, the tournament has included four teams: United States of America Women, Argentina Women, Brazil Women, and Canada Women. Recent editions have employed a round-robin league format. The 2021 and 2023 tournaments followed a double round-robin schedule, while the 2025 edition utilized a single round-robin format without knockout stages. The winner of the league table qualifies for the Global Qualifiers. The United States women's side has won every edition held to date: 2019, 2021, 2023, and 2025. This dominance is notable within the regional context, as no other team has lifted the trophy. The tournament differs from the older "ICC Americas Division 1/2" structures, which were part of the World Cricket League pathway. The current "Americas Qualifier" branding is specific to the T20 World Cup cycle. It is not a standing league but a periodic qualifier tied to the World Cup cycle. Unlike the men's pathway, which often involves more complex sub-regional qualifiers, the women's pathway has consolidated into this single regional qualifier event for the Americas. There is no formal promotion or relegation system within this specific tournament, functioning as an invitational or pre-selected qualifier for the region's top associate nations.

The ICC Women's T20 World Cup Americas Qualifier determines the representative for the Americas at the global stage. The United States of America Women have secured victory in all four editions since the competition began in 2019. The tournament format has shifted from a short series to a round-robin league involving four national teams. The winner advances to the Global Qualifiers, bypassing further regional hurdles.
