About ICC T20 World Cup 2026
The ICC Men's T20 World Cup is the flagship event of the shortest international format, held every two years under ICC governance. The 2026 edition was co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka from 7 February to 8 March, featuring twenty teams divided into four groups in the first round, with the top two from each group advancing to the Super 8 phase before semi-finals and the final. India hosted the majority of fixtures across Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Eden Gardens in Kolkata, Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, and M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. In the final at Ahmedabad, India defeated New Zealand by 96 runs — a dominant margin that confirmed the depth and balance of the Indian squad.
