Teams & Format
The competition alternates between the T20 format and the ODI game. In 2025, the T20 format is being used for the competition. This means that the teams have a total of 20 overs in each match to bat and 20 overs in the field.
T20 cricket is the shortest of the three major formats. This means that despite taking the least amount of time to complete a match, the excitement is still high as teams look to smash the ball to all corners of the pitch.
The competition currently boasts eight teams in total including the following:
- India
- Pakistan
- Sri Lanka
- Bangladesh
- Afghanistan
- UAE
- Oman
- Hong Kong
The tournament features two groups of four teams. The top two sides from each group advance to the Super Four round robin stage. The top two sides from this phase move into the final.
Key Teams & Prospects
| Team | Prospects |
|---|---|
| India | The favourites to win the competition and arguably the best T20 side in the world. Crammed with world class batters and bowlers, expect to see the likes of Shubman Gill and Jasprit Bumrah shine with bat and ball respectively. |
| Pakistan | Still searching for their best across formats, Pakistan have the players to challenge any side, but doing this consistently is their problem. Salman Ali Agha will lead the side with both the bat and as captain. |
| Sri Lanka | Like Pakistan, Sri Lanka are still searching for their best as they battle to get back to the top of the game. |
| Afghanistan | The dark horse of the tournament, Rashid Khan will lead an Afghanistan side that can beat anyone on their day, and has been improving rapidly in recent years. |
