Four Group 1 teams namely Australia, South Africa, England and West Indies are scheduled to lock horns on the first day of Round 2 of the ongoing ICC T20 World Cup 2021 in the UAE.
While the rest of the two Group 1 teams in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka will lock horns against each other in a day match at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium tomorrow, league phase’s arguably biggest clash featuring India and Pakistan will be played at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on a Sunday evening.
Given the nature of Super 12s, multiple A-list teams will be seen getting knocked out of the league phase which makes this format all the more intriguing.
