Another great opportunity for cricket lovers to support their favorite team during the session of Twenty-20 world cup 2016.
Again great revenue producer country India hosting this event and all other incredible awesome teams participating in this T20 WC 2016.
ICC (International Cricket Council) organize this tournament after 2 years gap but only once they changed T2 world cup duration gap in 2009-2010.
Previous Champions of T-20 world cups are India (2007), Pakistan (2009), England (2010), West Indies (2012), SriLanka (2014), now lest see who will took the trophy this time 2016.
A fact i want to share with you is that T20 World cup never won by Hosted country team & champion never get a taste of taking a trophy back to their hands.
India become most successful cricket teams at their home grounds due to playing IPL (Indian Premier League) every year.
Birth of T20 revolution into a glory of 5th edition 5 champions into not just a tournament its a world wide festival of cricket which brings associate nations into the limelight and providing a global stage to women's cricket now for the first time ever the biggest prize in t20 cricket arrives at its biggest stage yet the nation is ready for the biggest, greatest and the most spectacular cricketing event the world has ever seen.
