The men’s T20 World Cup is well underway in Australia.

Australia are reigning champions after triumphing in the delayed 2020 tournament last year and will be hopeful of defending the title on home soil.

England have grown into one of the best white-ball teams in the world game and are reigning 50-over champions. New skipper Jos Buttler will want to pick up where predecessor Eoin Morgan left off and take his side deep into the tournament.

A star-studded India boast the likes of Virat Kohli and can never be discounted while New Zealand will be looking to go one better after losing out in the final to their trans-Tasman neighbours last time out.

Here’s all you need to know about the tournament.

When is it?

The tournament will run from 16 October to 13 November.

How can I watch?

The entire tournament will be available to watch on Sky Sports and their app Sky Go.
