Indian cricket team failed to make it past the Super 12 stage despite having a star-studded squad. Indian fans were left disappointed with their team’s performance.
The Men in Blue, however, will have an opportunity to win the ICC T20 World Cup next year as Australia get ready to host the 2022 ICC T20 World Cup.
Australia were scheduled to host the 2020 ICC T20 World Cup. However, the International Cricket Council (ICC) postponed the tournament to 2022 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. It will be the eighth edition of the T20 World Cup, and the first one to be hosted by Australia.
When will ICC T20 World Cup 2022 start?
The 2022 ICC T20 World Cup will begin on October 16. The final of the tournament will take place on November 13. Like the 2021 T20 World Cup, 16 teams will compete next year as well. A total of 45 matches will be played from October 16 to November 13.
