11 days ago | 15 Views
It has been has just over a week since India announced their squad for the 2024 T20 World Cup. All players are active in the 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL), in which all teams have played at least one match since the Indian team was announced. The T20 World Cup will be held in the USA and the West Indies from June 1, with India playing their first match on June 5 against Ireland. It has also been reported that those players whose teams are not involved in the IPL playoffs will travel to New York, USA on May 21. The rest will leave after the IPL final, scheduled to be held on May 26.
