Although comprising of two qualifying matches in Geelong, the first day of ICC T20 World Cup 2022 generated quite a lot of interest among fans around the world.
Namibia registering a thumping 55-run victory over Sri Lanka caused the first “upset” of the tournament in the first match itself. The second match, meanwhile, was a low-scoring humdinger witnessing Netherlands defeating United Arab Emirates by 3 wickets on the penultimate ball of the match.
The proceedings will move to Hobart on Monday for the second day of the world event. Readers must note that a six-day First Round will be followed by a 16-day Super 12 stage which will culminate on November 6.
In what is only the third World Cup being played in Australia, hosts and defending champions Australia have a golden opportunity of becoming the first team to both defend a T20 World Cup and also win a title at home.
