The '''2011 Cricket World Cup warm-up matches''' were held prior to the [[2011 Cricket World Cup]], between February 12 and February 18, 2011. All [[2011 Cricket World Cup squads|14 nations]] that were qualified to take part in the World Cup participated in a series of matches to prepare, experiment with different tactics and to help them acclimatise to conditions in the [[Indian Subcontinent]]. The warm-up matches were not classified as [[One Day International]]s by the [[International Cricket Council]] (ICC), despite sharing some of main features of this form of [[cricket]], but some of the playing regulations were different from standard internationals in order to allow teams to experiment. For example, the main change allowed for thirteen different players to play in a match – nine players being allowed to both bat and bowl, with two only being able to bowl and two only being able to bat – instead of the eleven players normally allowed.

[[England national cricket team|England]], [[India national cricket team|India]], [[Sri Lanka national cricket team|Sri Lanka]] and [[South Africa national cricket team|South Africa]] were the only teams to win both of their warm-up games, whilst [[Australia national cricket team|Australia]], [[Canada national cricket team|Canada]], [[Kenya national cricket team|Kenya]] and [[Zimbabwe national cricket team|Zimbabwe]] did not win either of their fixtures.

==Match status==
As of 2007 none of the warm-up games were officially recognised as [[One Day International|ODIs]] or [[List A cricket|List A matches]] by the [[International Cricket Council]] due to various changes in the rules of the game, this continued into the 2011 version of the world cup.<ref name="ICCODIstatus">{{cite news |first=Brian |last=Murgatroyd |title=ICC confirms umpire and match referee appointments for opening stages of ICC Cricket World Cup |url=http://www.icc-cricket.com/icc-news/content/story/282105.html |publisher=ICC |date=2 March 2007 |accessdate=25 May 2007 |quote=Note, the warm-up matches do not have ODI status and so there will be no ICC match referee in place for these games. |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070308061525/http://www.icc-cricket.com/icc-news/content/story/282105.html |archivedate=8 March 2007 }}</ref> While normally only 11 players are allowed to [[Batting (cricket)|bat]] and [[Fielding (cricket)|field]] (excluding situations involving a [[Cricket terminology#T|substitute fielder]]),<ref>See twelfth man in the [[Cricket terminology#T|List of cricket terms]].</ref> 13 players were used in each team's squad for the matches – 11 of whom were allowed to field at one time and 11 of whom were allowed to bat (meaning players could be swapped in and out when fielding or bowling, but two players did not bat in a match).<ref>{{cite news |title=England bowlers demolish Bermuda |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/england/6415975.stm |publisher=BBC Sport (British Broadcasting Corporation) |date=5 March 2007 |accessdate=25 May 2007 }}</ref> In official ICC matches [[match referee]]s are required to help officiate a game, but due to the changes in the rules none were appointed for any of the warm-up games.<ref name="ICCODIstatus" /><ref>{{cite news |title=ICC announces umpires and referees for World Cup |url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/story/282108.html |work=ESPNcricinfo |publisher=ESPN Sports Media |date=2 March 2007 |accessdate=5 June 2007 }}</ref> Additionally, [[Man of the match#Cricket|Man of the Match]] awards were not given out and no reserve days were set for these matches.
