The ICC Associate XI was made of players from six countries – Bangladesh, Bermuda, Canada, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Zimbabwe. Australia defeated Pakistan in the final by five wickets, with England and the West Indies being the losing semi-finalists. The tournament play-offs were held at Adelaide Oval, with the other matches held at country venues in the states of New South Wales, South Australia, and Victoria.
