The 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier Play-off is scheduled to be the inaugural edition of the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier Play-off, a cricket tournament which forms part of the 2023 Cricket World Cup Qualification process.[1][2] It is scheduled to take place in 2023,[3] with all matches having One Day International (ODI) status, regardless of whether or not a team has ODI status prior to the start of the event.[4]

Six teams will take part in the tournament, the bottom four teams from the 2019–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 along with the top teams in Groups A and B of the 2019–2022 ICC Cricket World Cup Challenge League.[5] The top two teams from this tournament will progress to the 2023 Cricket World Cup Qualifier.[6] The remaining teams cannot qualify for the 2023 Cricket World Cup.

This competition will also determine any promotion or relegation between League 2 and Challenge League. Of the bottom two teams from League 2 and the two champions of the Challenge League, the two teams ranked higher in this competition will play in the next League 2, while the two teams ranked lower will play in the next Challenge League.[7]
