ICC unveils World Twenty20 2016 logo

ICC unveils World Twenty20 2016 logo: ICC has unveiled the logo for the T20 World cup, which is set to take place next year. The 6th edition of the ICC cricket World cup will take place in India, in the month of march. The proceedings will start from 11th March, and it will go on till 3rd April. For the second time, the tournament will feature 16 teams. All ten full members will qualify automatically, and they will be joined by the six Associate nations. Bengaluru, Chennai, Dharamshala, Mohali, Mumbai, Nagpur and New Delhi will be the venues along with Kolkata, which will also host the final of the event. The T20 world cup is a popular event world wide, and ICC has bigger plans for the action packed tournament. The International Cricket Council’s head of global development Tim Anderson said the world governing body had ambitions to further popularise the sport in a country more used to baseball, basketball and gridiron. “If we continue to make good progress, we would (hope to) see a World Twenty20 in the USA in the next rights cycle,” Anderson told the Sydney Daily Telegraph, with the newspaper pointing to 2024 as the likely date. “We think that’d be a great concept. Other sports have done that, not just football, but rugby are doing that with major events as well so we see that as a medium-term goal.” The next bid for hosting this event has gone in favour of Australia, and they will be hosting the tournament in the year 2020.
