Win Projections to be updated soon
The much-anticipated schedule for the 2024 T20I World Cup is set to be unveiled at 7 pm IST tonight. The ICC event, scheduled to be held in the United States of America (USA) and the Caribbean (West Indies) from June 4 to 30, will feature 20 countries, making it the first time in history that such a large number of teams will participate in the T20I World Cup.
The Cricket fans in India have a very good news. Disney+ Hotstar will stream the World Cup matches for free for all the viewers. As per the reports, the free version is only available on the mobile. It is an amazing initiative by Hotstar to draw more users on their website.
The teams will be divided into four groups, each comprising five teams. The top two teams from each group will advance to the next stage, where they will be divided into two groups of four. The top two teams from each of these groups will then progress to the knockout stage, consisting of semifinals and the final.
Some of the new teams participating in this edition include Papua New Guinea, Canada, Oman, Namibia, Nepal, and Uganda. Apart from the top 10 ICC-ranked sides, teams have qualified through European qualifiers, East Asia-Pacific qualifiers, and American qualifiers.
As per reports, India and Pakistan are likely to be placed in the same group, setting the stage for high-voltage encounters. Similarly, defending champions England and 2021 winners Australia are grouped together in Group B. Two groups have been dubbed as the ‘groups of death’ – one consisting of New Zealand, West Indies, and Afghanistan, and the other comprising South Africa, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh.
The schedule announcement for the T20I World Cup will be telecast on Star Sports and its sister channels, including Star Sports 1 and Star Sports 1 Hindi, as well as on its YouTube channel and Facebook page at 7 pm tonight.
