After a thrilling upset on Friday when Zimbabwe beat Australia, we are in for more exciting action at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026. With just one week of group stage action remaining, the qualification picture is slowly becoming clearer. Teams that are well accustomed to going to the next Super 8s stage are now picking up momentum. Every game from here becomes a must-win of sorts.
Must-watch T20 World Cup matches
Just ask England, who need to be on their toes against Scotland. After their loss to the West Indies (and a near escape vs Nepal), England are now in a must-win situation when they face Scotland at the Eden Gardens on Saturday. The bowling group needs to come good for England against Scotland, who looked superb against Italy. Scotland have a history against England as well, with both sides hailing from Europe.
Ireland vs Oman kick off Saturday at the SSC in Colombo. Both teams are all but out of the tournament as well. This fight will be for who would not want to finish with a wooden spoon in Group B.
Now, the third match of the day sees a heavyweight clash as New Zealand are set to lock horns with South Africa. A blockbuster clash from Group D at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. It is perhaps the most awaited group fixture at this T20 World Cup, after, obviously, the India vs Pakistan clash. Both teams have won their first two games and the winner of tonight’s battle will mathematically confirm their berth too.
