The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, which kicks off on June 1, is set to be an exhilarating event. This ninth edition of the tournament marks a historic debut in the USA, aiming to broaden the sport’s appeal in the world’s most advanced economy.
The tournament will feature 20 teams, divided into four groups of five teams each. Every team will play one match against each of the other teams in their group. The top two teams from each group will advance to the Super Eight stage, where they will be split into two groups of four. The top two teams from these groups will then progress to the semi-finals, culminating in a thrilling final match to determine the world champion.

Pakistan 111 for 7 (Babar 32*, Barry McCarthy 3-15) beat Ireland 106 for 9 (Gareth Delany 31, Josh Little 22*, Imad Wasim 3-8) by 3 wickets.
Babar Azam’s unbeaten 32 saved Pakistan’s blushes as the side ended its disappointing T20 World Cup campaign with a 3-wicket win over Ireland in Florida on Sunday.
Pakistan end their campaign with a win. But they almost messed this up too. The middle-order collapse gave Ireland hope when Pakistan slipped from 52/2 to 62/6. Babar though was there and he dropped anchor to ensure there were no further alarms.
Despite the win, Pakistan won’t be happy with the way they have batted in the whole tournament. It was not easy pitches to bat on, but Pakistan were very disappointing with the bat and that’s why they have exited at the first hurdle itself.
