T20 World Cup 2024: fixtures, schedule, groups, results and more – a complete guide

Plus format, how to watch and listen, venues, fixtures and match times across the Caribbean and United States

The 2024 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup – formerly, simply the World T20 – is the ninth edition of the tournament in only 17 years and the biggest ever with 20 teams taking part. It is taking place jointly in the Caribbean, for the second time, and the United States, which is hosting its first matches in either limited-overs World Cups.  
England are defending champions and seeking a third title which would push them ahead of West Indies as the most successful side in T20 World Cup history. They are in a spot of bother, however. Their first match of this year’s tournament (against Scotland) was rained off after just 10 overs and defeat by Australia in their second match means that progress to the Super Eights could be out of their hands. 
There have already been several huge upsets. The USA beat Pakistan, via a super over, and Canada beat Ireland. The Netherlands very nearly beat South Africa on Saturday.
Sunday featured one of the tournament highlights: Pakistan vs India, staged in New York. Jasprit Bumrah was the star as India defended just 119.
Like all ICC tournaments during the current rights cycle, in the UK and Ireland the 2024 T20 World Cup is being shown exclusively live on Sky Sports. Should England reach the final, as they did in 2022 and the 2019 World Cup, Sky may be persuaded to allow that match to be broadcast live on Channel 4. 
Ball-by-ball radio coverage is on BBC Test Match Special.
In India the tournament is being streamed free on Hotstar.

The tournament is shared for the second time (after UAE and Oman stepped in to co-host it during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2021), this time by the Caribbean and the US after Cricket West Indies and USA Cricket were successful with a joint bid. The ICC has long identified the US as a prime growth area for the game and was delighted the two boards worked in partnership to secure the hosting rights.
Indeed Paraag Marathe, chair of USA Cricket and Leeds United, said in 2021 when they were named joint-hosts: “The ICC has identified the USA as a strategic market for growth that will benefit cricket around the world. A major event in 2024 will be the critical catalyst to improve facilities, develop a professional league, grow the fanbase and inspire public and corporate support … leaving a legacy of facilities and public enthusiasm for the sport across America ahead of the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.”
Six grounds in the Caribbean – Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua & Barbuda, Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados, Providence Stadium in Providence, Guyana, Daren Sammy Cricket Ground in Gros Islet, Saint Lucia, Arnos Vale Stadium in Kingstown, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and Brian Lara Cricket Academy in San Fernando, Trinidad and Tobago – will share 39 matches in total.
The remaining 16 ties will take place at three venues across the United States: Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, a temporary venue built at Eisenhower Park, Long Island, New York, Central Broward Park in Lauderhill, Florida and Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas, Texas. 
Jofra Archer has been named as part of England’s 15-man squad but there is no place for fellow seamer Chris Woakes. Chris Jordan also makes the cut, with his ability in the field and as a lower-order batsman said to be critical in selectors’ thinking. Harry Brook is also back after missing England’s tour of India.
England hosted Pakistan for four Twenty20 matches before flying to the Caribbean.
