The seventh ICC Women’s T20 World Cup will see ten top cricketing nations descend upon six venues in Australia for a two-week tournament.
The 2020 Women’s World T20 gets underway on Friday, February 21, with a blockbuster between Australia and India, and conclude with the final on Sunday, March 8.
The Southern Stars enter the tournament in strong form, having won the T20 tri-series against India and England. Australia’s women enter as the defending champions, while also having won four of the last five tournaments.
The ten sides have been divided into two groups of five, where they’ll play the other sides in their groups once. The top two teams from each group progress to the semi-finals, with the winners progressing to the final.
This year’s tournament will see the third umpire be responsible for calling front-foot no-balls, in a trial that could end up changing international cricket umpiring.
Group A
Australia, Bangladesh, India, New Zealand, Sri Lanka
Group B
England, Pakistan, South Africa, Thailand, West Indies
All times AEDT
Friday, February 21: vs India at Sydney Showground Stadium, 7:00pm
