The 2026 ICC T20 World Cup has moved to the Super 8 round.
Pakistan will take on New Zealand in the first game of the second round of the World Cup at R. Premadasa International Cricket Stadium in Colombo, Sri Lanka, on Saturday, Feb. 21. Pakistan’s win over Ireland on Wednesday, Feb. 18, eliminated the United States from the tournament.
From the 20 teams that started the tournament, eight teams remain. Here’s what you need to know about the Super 8 round of the 2026 T20 World Cup, including betting odds and schedule:
Teams in T20 World Cup Super 8 round
The eight nations remaining have been divided into two groups of four teams, with hosts India and Sri Lanka hosting a group each.
As was the case during the Group Stage, every team will play the other teams in their group once. The two top teams at the end of the round of matches will advance to the semifinals. A win earns two points and a loss earns none. A rainout gives each team involved in the game a single point.
If a match is tied after 20 overs, a super over will be played until a winner is determined.
Group 1:
- India
- South Africa
- West Indies
- Zimbabwe
Group 2:
- England
- New Zealand
- Pakistan
- Sri Lanka
