On January 24, 2026, the International Cricket Council (ICC) officially announced that Scotland would replace Bangladesh in the upcoming 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup. The decision followed the Bangladesh Cricket Board’s (BCB) refusal to participate in the tournament as scheduled, citing security concerns about their group-stage matches in India.

At every ICC event, every cricket fan’s eye is on the biggest arch-rivals, Pakistan and India. This year again, both teams are in the same group so they will play more than once in the event. The IND vs PAK (Group A) match of the T20 World Cup 2026 will be played on February 15 at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. The game will start on 6:30 PM PKT/7:00 PM IST or 1:30 PM GMT.
