Post the situation between India and Pakistan after Operation Sindoor, there were apprehensions as to whether the two would be placed in the same group heading into the ICC tournament. The ICC has now officially revealed the schedule for the mega tournament, and the next India vs Pakistan match date has also been unveiled.
India and Pakistan have been placed in the same group i.e, Group 1 of the Women's T20 World Cup 2026. They have been placed alongside Australia, South Africa and two teams who will come through the qualifiers.
