EspañolICC AMERICAS CHAMPIONSHIP
The 'ICC Americas Championship' is a cricket tournament for the ICCs Americas development region. The tournament is competed for by associate and affiliate members of the International Cricket Council in the region. It also forms part of the global World Cricket League.
The 2000 tournament was held in Ontario, Canada, at the Maple Leaf Cricket Club and G Ross Lord Park. Then affiliate member the Cayman Islands gained a surprise victory over Argentina, and the tournament itself went down to the final day. Canada and Bermuda were level on six points each going into their final game. Bermuda batted first and were dismissed for 186, with Dennis Archer top scoring with 59, with John Davison and Nicholas Ifill taking three wickets each for the home team. When Canada batted, they lost their first two wickets quickly, but Nicholas Ifill (completing a fine all-round performance with an unbeaten 78) and Joseph Harris (who scored 60) putting on a 122 run partnership, before Ifill and Paul Prashad steered them home for the seven wicket win.
The 2002 tournament was held in Argentina and saw the debut of the Bahamas. The home side were disappointed to go without a win, again losing to the affiliate member in the tournament. The USA won the tournament after rain washed out the final day, ending Canada's hopes of winning the tournament for the second time in a row.
The 2004 tournament was held in Bermuda, and featured the same teams as in the 2002 tournament. It was won for the second time by Canada, who went unbeaten throughout the tournament.
The 2006 tournament was played over three divisions, a format that is intended to continue in future with promotion and relegation between the divisions.
The 2006 Division Three tournament was held in Suriname and saw the official international debut of Brazil and Chile. The tournament was won by Suriname who gained promotion to Division Two.
The 2006 Division Two tournament was held in Argentina, who won the tournament after beating the Bahamas in what was the deciding group games.
The 2006 Division One tournament was held in Canada. The hosts started poorly, losing to Bermuda and the Cayman Islands, and were unable to repeat their 2004 performance, finishing third. The tournament was won by Bermuda for the first time. The tournament also functioned as qualifying for the World Cricket League for Argentina and the Cayman Islands (the other three were already in the tournament). The Caymans finished fourth, giving them a spot in Division Three in 2007, and Argentina a spot in Division Five in 2008.
