The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 champions Australia are ready for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026. India and Sri Lanka are jointly hosting the 10th edition of the tournament, which will run between 7 February and 8 March 2026.
In the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, the one-time T20 World Cup champions Australia are in Group B along with Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, Ireland, and Oman. Australia will play all their group stage matches in the tournament in Sri Lanka. If they qualify for the Super Eight stage, they will take up the Group 1 spot and will play all the Super Eight fixtures in India.
The latest ODI World Cup champions are desperate to showcase their never-beaten mindset once again, while winning their maiden T20 World Cup trophy when the tournament was previously hosted in Asia (UAE and Oman in 2021) brings their strong potential for the competition.
