The International Cricket Council, or ICC, is the governing body of cricket in the world. It is responsible for organizing the men’s T20 World Cup, a tournament of the Twenty20 game. To be eligible to participate in the event, teams must first qualify through a qualifying competition known as the T20 World Cup. Sixteen couples contest this tournament.

For the upcoming T20 World Cup, the ICC has announced the schedule of matches. The tournament will consist of 45 games. These matches will be played in seven different stadiums across Australia. In addition, each team will have to play three games against other groups. This is known as the “first round.”
Another stage, known as the “super 12,” will be followed. The super 12 will involve the top eight teams in the rankings.
First round
Eight teams will participate in the first round of the ICC T20 World Cup 2022. All eight will compete in two groups. Each team will play three matches, with the winning team getting two points. In the event of a tie, one point will be awarded. The best performance from each group will qualify them for the Super 12 stage.
For the first round of the ICC T20 world cup, the West Indies and Ireland were the most notable sides. These two are ranked among the top eight teams in the world.
However, a few other countries have earned direct entry into the Super 12 phase. This is because they finished in the top eight of the previous edition.
