Media Accreditation Advisory
The application window for the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 media accreditation opened last week. This is an online process that can be completed by clicking here and is only for the print media, websites, non-rights holding (NRH) TV and radio broadcasters.
Those who have covered one of the following ICC Events will be given preference for accreditation:
- ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024
- ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup India 2023
- ICC Women’s T20 World Cup South Africa 2023
- ICC Men’s T20 Cricket World Cup Australia 2022
- ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup New Zealand 2022
Though the record of attending previous ICC events (the ones mentioned above or other ICC events) will be considered, please note that attending previous events does not guarantee you media accreditation. All applications will be assessed thoroughly keeping in mind the media organisations, the individual applicants and media spaces available at venues.
Members of the media have until 17h00 Dubai time (GMT +4) on 10 September 2024, to register for accreditation. As part of the process, the media will need to upload the following documents:
- A colour headshot photograph with a plain background like a passport photo
- Letter of approval/assignment from your Editor/Commissioning Editor
- Passport/National Identity Card/Driving License
- If you have covered any of the above five ICC global tournaments, please provide a sample of work
The ICC reserves the right to approve/reject/request further information on all applications in its sole discretion and without providing reasons for doing so.
Whilst selecting matches, the media is advised to bear in mind the following:
Your tournament pass doesn’t guarantee you a space in the media working area on a match day. Match-day accreditation lists will be prepared by the ICC as per its review process (please refer to the FAQs document to read more about the review process).
Match notifications for the tournament will begin in due course and will be published on the online portal. You will be able to log into your account and see the matches for which you have been allocated a seat in the media box, or a photo position.
As at previous ICC events, NRH camerapersons will be accredited for the tournament, but only reporters will be accredited on match days. However, to facilitate the NRHs, who will be allowed to cover pre-match activities, all pre-match and post-match media conferences will be uploaded to the ICC’s Online Media Zone.
When you apply for accreditation, you will see an option of requesting a visa letter. If you need a letter in support of your visa application, please fill in the details carefully as a visa support letter will be issued based on those details. However, the ICC does not guarantee visas.
The media is advised to carefully read the Media Accreditation Terms and Conditions and refer to the FAQs document to avoid any misunderstandings or inconvenience.
Media Accreditation Terms and Conditions and FAQs are available on the accreditation portal and in the Resources section of the ICC Online Media Zone. Please note that no warnings will be given for any infringements of the T and Cs and accreditation cards will be revoked straight away.
For access to the Online Media Zone please send in a request to media@icc-cricket.com with your name, organisation, designation and e-mail ID.
Please note that Online Media Zone access is not required to apply for accreditation.
