12 teams are all set to participate in one of the biggest cricket tournaments of the year, as we all get ready for the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2026, starting from June 12 in England and Wales.
With New Zealand aiming to defend the crown and India, while teams like India are targeting white-ball dominance after the maiden Women's ODI World Cup title, this is going to be an exciting tournament. Apart from them, Australia, the most successful team in the history of the tournament, will be another contender, along with hosts England, who have already announced their spot.
Bangladesh, South Africa, and Pakistan will appear at the tournament as the dark horses, while teams like Sri Lanka and the West Indies will look to upset a few big teams during the tournament.
Australia, Bangladesh, India, the Netherlands, Pakistan and South Africa will face each other in Group A. Meanwhile, hosts England and defending champions New Zealand will have Scotland and West Indies, Sri Lanka and Ireland in Group B.
