Question:

Which of the following pairs are NOT correctly matched?

I. 13th ICC One Day Cricket World Cup - India

II. 12th ICC Women’s one day Cricket World Cup - New Zealand

III. 8th T20 Women’s Cricket World Cup - South Africa

IV. 8th T20 Men's Cricket World Cup - India

Options:

IV

lll

Correct Answer:

IV

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) - IV

I. 13th ICC One Day Cricket World Cup - India: This is correct. India won the 2011 Cricket World Cup, which was the 13th edition of the tournament.

II. 12th ICC Women’s one day Cricket World Cup - New Zealand: This is also correct. New Zealand won the 2020 Women's Cricket World Cup, which was the 12th edition of the tournament.

III. 8th T20 Women’s Cricket World Cup - South Africa: This seems plausible. As of today, March 27, 2024, there have only been seven editions of the Women's T20 World Cup. So, this statement might need to be verified once the 8th edition takes place.

IV. 8th T20 Men's Cricket World Cup - India: This is incorrect. There have only been seven editions of the Men's T20 World Cup as of today. India has won the tournament once (in 2007).

Therefore, option IV  is the mismatch. We cannot confirm the winner of the yet-to-be-played 8th edition.
