All squads for the T20 World Cup 2023

The eighth edition of the T20 World Cup is set to begin in South Africa on 10th February. The tournament will see ten teams participating, segregated into two groups. 

Defending champions Australia will be led by Meg Lanning, who returned to international cricket after a five-month break. Whereas, Shikha Pandey will bolster the bowling attack for India. 



The major omissions in the squads include Dane van Niekerk (dropped for failing the fitness test) for South Africa and Hasini Perera (injured) for Sri Lanka. Also,  the West Indies are sweating on the fitness of former captain Stafanie Taylor.
