T20 World Cup gets major overhaul for 2028

The ICC is revamping the T20 World Cup for 2028 with a new Super 10 stage and eliminator matches to boost competitiveness. Learn more about the changes.

The International Cricket Council has approved a major restructuring of its men's T20 World Cup, aiming to increase competitiveness across all tournament stages. The reforms are strategically timed with cricket's return to the Olympics in 2028 and the ICC's broader goal of expanding the sport globally.

The redesigned format will still feature 20 teams but introduces a new Super 10 stage. Following an initial group round, ten teams will advance to two groups of five. The winners of these Super 10 groups will secure direct entry into the semifinals.
