11 countries which have hosted the ICC World Cup thus far

#4 New Zealand (1992 and 2015 ICC World Cup)

New Zealand has hosted 2 ICC World Cups so far.

New Zealand has been an unlucky side especially when it comes to World Cups as they have hosted it multiple times but still have not lifted the trophy even once. New Zealand has hosted 2 world cups so far, the first one in 1992 and the 2nd one in 2015. In both the cups, New Zealand shared the hosting responsibilities with their neighbours, Australia.

New Zealand was just one victory away from winning their first World Cup in the history during the year 2015. The home side ended the 2015 World Cup as the runner-ups as they lost the final match against Australia. The semi-final and the quarter-final matches of both the World Cups were shared by the hosts but the final was played in Australia on both the occasions.

#3 Australia (1992 and 2015 ICC World Cup)

The Australian side got the home advantage as they won the 2015 ICC World Cup along with hosting it.

Australia has a very high success ratio in the Cricket World Cups. Australia has won 5 out of the 11 World cups conducted so far. Also, it is the only nation to win 3 consecutive World Cups. So far, Australia has hosted 2 World cups, one in 1992 and the other one in 2015.

Out of that 2, Australia won the 2015 World Cup as they made the most out of the home conditions. A total of 25 matches and 26 matches were played in Australia during the 1992 and 2015 World Cups respectively with the rest of them being held in New Zealand.
