T20 World Cup 2022: Full match schedule and how to watch on TV

The men’s T20 World Cup will begin on 16 October and England’s Ben Stokes is among a batting order conundrum for the team.

Fans and pundits are discussing which order the team should bat from and former England wicketkeeper James Foster has shared his opinion.

“Jos [Buttler] has opened the batting for a long time in the T20 format so you would imagine he will stay there - I don’t think there will be a change ahead of a World Cup,” he told the BBC.

“It’s exciting to have Alex [Hales] back in that squad. He has gone about his business in this series as we’ve seen in franchise cricket over the past few years - he can really dominate sides. Phil Salt has done himself no harm with his performances so there is a decision to be made there.”

But how can fans watch and what is the schedule? Here’s all you need to know.

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.
