Web Desk: The ICC has announced dates for major upcoming cricket tournaments, including the 2028 T20 World Cups and the 2029 World Test Championship final.

Pakistan to Host Women’s T20 World Cup

The International Cricket Council (ICC) has confirmed dates for several major international competitions. The Pakistan Women’s T20 World Cup 2028 will take place from September 7 to October 1, with 12 teams competing for the title.
Hosting the event will be an important moment for Pakistan cricket. It will bring international women’s teams to the country and give local fans an opportunity to watch top-level cricket at home.

The ICC cricket tournament dates provide teams and organisers with a clearer timeline for preparations. Pakistan’s hosting role will also put the spotlight on the country’s arrangements for welcoming players, officials and supporters.

Australia and New Zealand to Host Men’s T20 World Cup

The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2028 is scheduled for October 12 to November 12. Australia and New Zealand will jointly host the 20-team competition.

The men’s tournament will begin just 11 days after the women’s event ends. This will create a busy period for international cricket, with two major T20 competitions taking place within weeks of each other.

The ICC cricket tournament dates also give participating teams time to plan their preparations, training schedules and travel arrangements.

The ICC has scheduled the World Test Championship (WTC) final for June 8 to 12, 2029, in England.

The match will feature the top two teams from the 2027–29 championship cycle. They will compete for the world title in Test cricket after the points-based competition.

The final will be an important event for teams that perform consistently throughout the championship period.

2030 Men’s T20 World Cup Gets New Dates

The ICC has also revised the timing of the 2030 Men’s T20 World Cup. The tournament has been moved from June to July and August.

England, Ireland and Scotland will jointly host the 20-team event, bringing international cricket to three host nations.

The revised schedule adds another major tournament to the international calendar and gives cricket boards more information for long-term planning.

What the Schedule Means for Fans

The Pakistan Women’s T20 World Cup 2028 will be one of the major events on the upcoming calendar, while the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2028 will follow shortly afterwards.

The ICC cricket tournament dates outline a busy period for international cricket between the 2027 and 2031 ODI World Cups. Fans can look forward to major events across both limited-overs and Test formats.
