Throughout the tournament, Pakistan’s cricket team will be pitted against formidable opponents in Group A, including Canada, Ireland, and their longtime rivals, India. The T20 World Cup 2024, together hosted by the United States and the West Indies, will witness an exhilarating display of cricketing prowess as 20 teams battle it out from June 2 to June 29.

The burgeoning popularity of cricket in Saudi Arabia has served as a catalyst for the strengthening of ties between Pakistan and the Kingdom. In a significant move, the PCB announced in January 2023 its readiness to share its vast sporting expertise with Saudi Arabia. The nation’s cricketing journey has been marked by notable milestones, with the International Cricket Council granting it affiliate membership in 2003 and subsequently elevating it to associate membership in 2016.
Since the establishment of the Saudi Arabian Cricket Federation in 2020, the sport has witnessed an unprecedented surge in popularity and growth within the Kingdom. The federation has been tirelessly working to promote and develop cricket at the grassroots level while simultaneously preparing national teams to compete on the international stage.
The prospect of winning the T20 World Cup 2024 and earning a Royal Hajj Invitation has undoubtedly ignited a renewed sense of determination and passion within the Pakistan cricket team. As they embark on this momentous journey, the nation stands united in its support, eagerly anticipating the team’s success and the opportunity for them to be honored as royal guests during the sacred pilgrimage of Hajj.
