Jersey target ODI status and T20 World Cup place by 2029

Jersey have released a strategic plan for men's and women's cricket that sets ODI status and a World Cup appearance as goals within three years. The men's side currently sit top of ICC Challenge League A with five matches remaining and need a top-two finish to reach the 2027 Cricket World Cup qualifier play-off. A strong performance there would secure ODI status and a chance at the final qualifying tournament for the 2027 Cricket World Cup. Chief executive Sarah Gomersall said the island must dream big and that the men can compete with the best in Europe. She added that the women's side should aim to break into the top 25 of the ICC T20 rankings and sustain their position in Division Two. Jersey's men are ranked 29th and the women 32nd in the current T20 standings.
