ICC unveils revamped schedule of Women’s T20 World Cup 2024
The International Cricket Council (ICC) has updated the schedule for the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024, which will now be held in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) instead of Bangladesh. The tournament’s most exciting matches will take place in Dubai and Sharjah.
Groups:
- Group A: Australia, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, Sri Lanka
- Group B: South Africa, England, West Indies, Bangladesh, Scotland
Sri Lanka and Scotland qualified for the tournament earlier this year through the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier in Abu Dhabi.
Each team will play four matches in the group stage. The top two teams from each group will advance to the semi-finals, scheduled for October 17 and 18. The winners of these semi-finals will meet in the final on October 20. There will also be a reserve day for both the semi-finals and the final.
