Cricket Governing Body on Friday (January 5) evening announced the much-awaited schedule for the 2024 T20 World Cup. The premier 20-over tournament is five months away, but talk in the cricket fraternity has already shifted to the shortest format. The biennial Twenty20 International tournament will be jointly hosted by the West Indies and the United States from June 4 to June 30.

The ninth edition of the mega event will witness a new format with 20 teams competing for the first time in its history. Hosts West Indies and USA qualified automatically, while the next 10 teams were determined by their performance in the 2022 World Cup edition and the T20I rankings cut-off on November 14.
