Daren Sammy Stadium St Lucia (x)
As we have entered the Super Eight stage, the co-hosts, West Indies, will lock horns against England in the 42nd match of the T20 World Cup 2024 on Thursday, June 20, at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in Gros Islet, St Lucia.
England have had a moderate season so far, having not been at their best in the marquee tournament. Jos Buttler-led England have won two matches so far and had to depend on Australia's victory over Scotland to qualify for the Super Eights.
On the other hand, the West Indies have been arguably one of the strongest contenders, playing exceptional cricket so far to make a grand entry into the Super Eights.
They defeated New Zealand, Uganda and Papua New Guinea before securing a convincing win over Afghanistan in their final group-stage outing.
