How many times has India hosted the ICC Men’s T-20 Cricket World Cup as of 2023?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 1.

As of 2023, India has hosted the ICC Men’s T20 Cricket World Cup once, in 2016. The tournament featured 16 teams, with matches played across various cities, including Mumbai, Delhi, and Kolkata. The final took place at Eden Gardens, where West Indies defeated England to win their second T20 World Cup title. Although India was scheduled to co-host the 2021 edition, it was moved to the UAE and Oman due to COVID-19 concerns. Hence, India has officially hosted the tournament only once so far.
