The 2013 ICC World Cricket League Division Three was a cricket tournament which took place from 28 Aprilββto 5 May 2013 in Bermuda. It formed part of theββICC World Cricket League and qualifying for the 2015 World Cup.
Nepal were the "pre-tournament favourites," but they lost against USA and Uganda in their first two matches. On the other hand, USA and "Uganda made solid starts." Uganda remained unbeaten in their first four matchesββto comfortably secure one of the two available places in the 2014 World Cup Qualifier.
In the fifth round of the league, "three teams remained in contention for the second qualifying spot," USA having won 3 out of 4. And Bermuda & Nepal both having won 2 out of 4. USA could guarantee progress by, "defeating the hosts Bermuda." But for Nepal to proceed, they had to defeat Italy by a heavy margin and also rely on a Bermuda victory over the USA. In the end, exactly that happened and Nepal went through to the 2014 World Cup Qualifier over USA and hosts Bermuda on net run rate.
