The2012 ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier was played in early 2012 as a part of theICC World Twenty20 Qualifier series. This edition of the qualifier for the2012 ICC World Twenty20 was an expanded version comprising ten qualifiers from regional Twenty20 tournaments, in addition to the six ODI/Twenty20 status countries.[1] It was staged in the UAE.
ICC Associate and Affiliate Members from around the globe had the opportunity to qualify for the 2012ICC World Twenty20 inSri Lanka. Regional qualifying events were held in the five regions to provide a qualifying pathway to the 16-team qualifier which took place in early 2012 in the United Arab Emirates. The six Associate/Affiliate Members with ODI status – Afghanistan, Canada, Ireland, Kenya, Netherlands and Scotland – have automatically qualified for this event.
Three teams from the Asia region, two teams from Africa, Americas and Europe, and one team from East Asia-Pacific had the opportunity to qualify for the ICC World Twenty20 2012 global qualifier. Some ODI status Associate/Affiliate sides took part in these qualifying events, along with emerging teams from ICC Full Members (e.g., South Africa and Zimbabwe). In such cases, the highest placed Associate and Affiliate sides from these events progressed to the global qualifier, based on the qualifying spots available.[2]
The tournament was won by Ireland, who defeated Afghanistan in the final, in a rematch of the2010 ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier. Both the teams qualified for the2012 ICC World Twenty20 inSri Lanka.Paul Stirling was the highest run-getter with 357 runs including the second-fastest half-century ever in T20I match (17 balls) in the final, whileDawlat Zadran with 17 wickets was the highest wicket-taker. Namibia'sRaymond van Schoor was the Player of the Tournament.[3][4]

The ten qualified teams from regionalTwenty20 competitions played in the 2012 World Twenty20 Qualifier along with the six associate teams that had automatically qualified. Originally, after the cut of associates from theICC Cricket World Cup 2015, it was decided to give associates more of a chance inTwenty20 format and expanded the main tournament to 16 teams with top 6 teams from the Qualifier going to the World Cup but after the re-inclusion of Associates in the 50-Over World Cup in 2015, the earlier format was retained and only the top two teams from this event qualifying for the2012 ICC World Twenty20.
The International Cricket Council announced the umpires to officiate in the tournament. There were four Regional Match Referees, plus 12 umpires, seven from the Elite Panel (which includedSimon Taufel, a five-time ICC Umpire of the Year Award recipient), and also five ICC Associate and Affiliate Panel umpires.[5]
