Pakistan to Host 2028 Women's T20 World Cup; India Matches Likely in UAE
Pakistan is set to host the 2028 ICC Women's T20 World Cup from September 7 to October 1, featuring 12 teams. Under a hybrid hosting model used since the 2025 Champions Trophy, matches involving India are expected to be played at a neutral venue, likely the United Arab Emirates, due to logistical convenience. Pakistan aims to host all other matches, including knockout rounds if India does not qualify for the final. The arrangement balances hosting responsibilities amid ongoing India-Pakistan venue considerations.
