2022 T20 World Cup Squads Announced
We're now less than a month away from the 2022 T20 World Cup which will see Australia host and try and retain their winners status in the tournament they won for the first time just last year.
On Superbru, like last year, both our Predictor game and Fantasy game will begin with the Super 12 stage of the tournament which begins on October 22.
So far, we know 8 of the 12 teams that will be competing in the Super 12 with the other 4 to be decided by the qualifying phase of the tournament which involves 8 teams and begins a week earlier.
As something you can refer to throughout the tournament when playing our Predictor and Fantasy games, here are the squads that each nation has named in full, beginning with the Super 12 teams as they are the most relevant to our games until we know the final 4 qualified teams.
*All teams have until October 9 to make changes to their squads. Changes made after that date due to injuries etc. must be approved by the ICC.
