The 2024 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup is set to be the largest in history, featuring 20 teams competing across three stages: the initial group stage, the Super Eights, and the finals. The tournament will take place from June 2 to June 29, co-hosted by the USA and the West Indies.
The teams are divided into four groups of five for the group stage. India, placed in Group A, will face strong competition, including a highly anticipated clash against Australia, seeded second in Group B. The top two teams from each group will advance to the Super Eights of the T20 World Cup 2024, where the top seeds retain their positions, ensuring Australia plays in Group 1 against potentially formidable opponents like India, New Zealand, and Sri Lanka, if all seeded teams progress without upsets.
