India have been placed in a relatively light Group A for the 2026 T20 World Cup with USA, Netherlands and Namibia and arch-rivals Pakistan.

India will open their campaign on Feb 7 in Mumbai against USA, making it the first prime time match of the month-long event. Their much awaited contest against Pakistan will be a week later on Feb 15 in Colombo.

The Indian government has barred all bilateral sporting engagements with Pakistan following the Pahalgam terror attack in April this year, but has permitted contests between the two nations in multinational events.

Rohit, the captain in 2023 and the winning captain of India's 2024 T20 title triumph, was named as the brand ambassador of the tournament by ICC Chairman Jay Shah and he was clear about how India "must not take foot off the pedal" in the most unpredictable of formats in the game. India's current T20 skipper Suryakumar Yadav echoed those thoughts.
