The next edition of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup is less than 80 days away and the International Cricket Council (ICC) is yet to announce the complete schedule. However, we have a crucial update regarding the groups of the tournament. The ICC has finalised the groupings for the 20-team event, co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka from February 7 to March 8.
India & Pakistan in same group yet again
The group draw has thrown up some interesting contrasts. India, the top-ranked T20 side, have landed in what looks like one of the softer groups on paper. Sri Lanka, their co-hosts, have drawn something far trickier. With only two spots open from each group of five teams for the Super Eight, one bad week early in the tournament can send a major team packing.
India’s group includes only one other Test nation, Pakistan. The remaining teams are Netherlands, Namibia and USA, all ranked outside the top-10. It should be a straightforward path for Rohit Sharma’s side, although Pakistan’s shock loss to the USA in 2024 is a reminder that nothing is guaranteed.
Sri Lanka, meanwhile, sit in a group loaded with three other Test teams, namely Australia, Zimbabwe and Ireland plus Oman. England and West Indies are stuck with Bangladesh and a dangerous Nepal unit. South Africa’s cluster featuring New Zealand and Afghanistan adds to the number of groups that will feel like elimination rounds from the start.
India begin their campaign against USA before facing Namibia, Pakistan and the Netherlands. Colombo will host the India vs Pakistan clash on February 15, while Ahmedabad is in line to host the final unless Pakistan qualify.
