Notably, in the wake of the Coronavirus situation in India, T20 World Cup was shifted to UAE and Oman. The tournament will be held across four venues – Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and Oman, from October 17 to November 14.
There are two groups in Super 12, in which six teams have been kept. Group-2 comprises India, Pakistan, New Zealand, Afghanistan, and the other two qualifiers from Round 1. Group-1 comprises England, Australia, South Africa, West Indies.
The match is also going to happen in the World Cup at a time when the ceasefire agreement on the border between the armies of India and Pakistan is being strictly followed.
