United Arab Emirates is ready to host the
much-anticipated T20 World Cup. From October 17 to 22, eight teams will compete in the
qualifying round. The top eight teams have already qualified for the Super 12 round, and
those teams will begin their preparations with warm-up matches during this time.
The
schedule for the event has been released, and the matches will be held on only two days,
October 18 and 20, with four matches per day. In the lead-up to the Super 12 round, which
begins on October 23, each team will play two matches.
In their warm-up matches, Team
India, led by Virat Kohli, will face England and Australia, which is advantageous for the
team given the strength of both sides. Pakistan will face the defending champions West
Indies and South Africa in the Super 12 stage before facing their
arch-rivals.
Australia will face New Zealand in their other warm-up match, while
England's other warm-up match will be the World Cup 2019 final rematch. Eight matches will
be contested over two days in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Apart from the main tournament, Star
Sports has declared that India's warm-up matches will be broadcast starting October
17.
Meanwhile, the Super 12 round will begin with a match between Australia and South
Africa, followed by a match between the 2016 T20 World Cup finalists, England and West
Indies, on the same day. The matches currently being played in the UAE are enormous, and one
hopes that the pitches will last until the end of the gigantic event.
