New Delhi. The countdown of T20 World Cup 2021 has started. The matches of the tournament are scheduled to be held in the United Arab Emirates and Oman in October-November. Team India may be announced on 7th September. A place in the World Cup squad is almost certain for at least 5 players who have made it to the 2016 Twenty20 World Cup and this year’s WTC Final Event. It also includes captain Virat Kohli. However, in 2016, the team was led by former experienced player MS Dhoni. This time the matches of the tournament will be held from October 17 to November 14. A total of 16 teams are coming down.

Pakistan in Team India Group

There is also a Pakistani team in the Team India group. Pakistan have never beaten India in a T20 World Cup.
