The 2024 Men’s T20 World Cup is the biggest yet with 20 sides taking part and there’s a return to an old format.
All of the teams are involved from the off in an initial group stage, with each side playing four games and the top two progressing to the Super 8s.
The Super 8s, which will take place solely in the Caribbean, will consist of two groups of four, with eight sides (India, Pakistan, Australia, England, New Zealand, West Indies, South Africa and Sri Lanka) seeded to help with the planning and schedule for that stage.
Should those sides progress they will go into either Group 1 or 2 based on their seeding, rather than their finishing position in the initial group phase.
In the Super 8s, the top two teams progress to the semi-finals with the winner of each group facing the runner-up in the other pool.
Throughout both phases teams are awarded two points for a win, one for a no result and zero for a loss. There’s no ties in T20 cricket – more on that below!
