India will play Bangladesh on June 1 while Australia will face West Indies on May 30 as ICC announced the warmup fixtures for T20 World Cup 2024. Matches are scheduled to be played from 27 May to 1 June across the USA and at two venues in Trinidad and Tobago in the West Indies. The West Indies against Australia fixture at Queen’s Park Oval, Trinidad and Tobago, will be open to fans.
The venues to host the 16 warm-up matches are the Grand Prairie Cricket Stadium in Grand Prairie, Texas; Broward County Stadium in Broward County, Florida; and Queen’s Park Oval and Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Trinidad and Tobago.
The warm-up fixtures will be 20 overs per side and will not carry international T20 status as teams will be allowed to field all members of their 15-player squad. In a change from the previous rights cycle, teams can play up to two warm-up matches depending on arrival time at the event.
The venue for the India vs Bangladesh warm-up tie – the last practice game before the main event starts on June 3 – is yet to be announced.
The different arrival dates of various teams have presented a unique scenario before the World Cup. Among Test-playing nations, Australia, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Ireland and Afghanistan are the only teams with two warm-up matches scheduled. India and West Indies have one each. South Africa is the only team to play an intra-squad match, while Pakistan, England, and New Zealand won’t play any warm-up matches before the World Cup.
Pakistan and England will be involved in a four-match T20I seriesending on May 30.
