    The onset of COVID-19 meant that the tournament was pushed back a year from 2020 to 2021, but it also means that fans will get to witness two World Cups in two years. 

    And naturally, many would be curious as to what precisely the tournament schedule looks like. Most Indian fans are fixated on what happens on October 23 – that is, after all, the day when India will take on arch-rivals Pakistan. 

    But the actual tournament gets a week underway, with the qualifying rounds for the associate and lower-ranked nations also taking place before the main group stages. 

    With that in mind, here's a look at the full schedule of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022:
