Pallekele International Cricket Stadium: The 10th edition of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup now shifts gears into its most compelling chapter -- the Super 8s. After weeks of high-voltage contests, narrow escapes and headline-grabbing upsets, the 20-team spectacle has been trimmed to eight contenders.

From February 21 to March 1, the race for semi-final berths will intensify in a single round-robin battle across two fiercely competitive groups.

Pakistan will take on New Zealand in the opening match of the Super Eights phase of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup in Colombo, while reigning champions India face South Africa in a rematch of the thrilling 2024 title decider.
