Tournament Format
This time ICC T20 World Cup has been divided into 3 stages. These 3 stages are given below and we will discuss them in detail.
- First Round
- Super 12
- Knockout Stage
First Round
The first stage of the T20 World Cup is called the first round which is gonna be very interesting. The first round consists of two groups, Group A and Group B. In Group A, team England will face the ICC T20 top qualifiers teams of Group A in the ground. While in Group B, India will battle against the ICC T20 top qualifiers of Group B. In this regard, both teams will have a chance to get entry in the Super 12s Stage.

Super 12s
The next stage name is Super 12s which is much more interesting and sealing. In this round, the four qualifiers teams from the first round will compete against the top 8 teams ranked in T20. This means only four teams will have a chance from the first stage to qualify for the second stage of the Super 12s.
For more convenience, the Super 12s stage is split into two small subgroups called Group A and Group B.
Group 1 of them simply includes teams of Australia, Pakistan, New Zealand, West Indies and the 1 lucky qualifier team from the Group A of stage one. And the second qualifying team of Group B from stage one to be added in this group.
Group 2 includes teams from England, India, Afghanistan, South Africa and the second qualifying team of Group A from stage one. And the first qualifying team of the group B from the first stage.
Maybe it looks to be tricky as per rules but this scheme is made to minimize the errors that the management faces in making schedules of the World Cups. Previously the management faced some criticism so that they properly made this rule this time.
In this regard, both groups will have an equal number of teams which is 6 teams per group. And the battle will go on.
