September 9, 2025 at 9:43 PM

The 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup is likely to be played from Feb. 7 to March 8, with India and Sri Lanka as co-hosts, according to reports.

The month-long tournament is expected to be staged across at least five venues in India and two in Sri Lanka.

The final has been tentatively scheduled for the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. But if Pakistan qualifies, the title match could be shifted to Colombo under the ICC’s neutral venue policy for India-Pakistan fixtures.

The 2026 edition will feature 20 teams and will be the first time Sri Lanka hosts World Cup matches in more than a decade. India last hosted the T20 World Cup in 2016. (Newswire)
