Former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singhhas picked his four teams that are most likely to make it to the semi-finals of the upcoming ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026, starting February 7. Harbhajan has not included two-time winners England as one of the favourites to clinch their third title in the 2026 edition, which will be co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka.
The legendary spinner, while highlighting how India will be the best equipped to tackle with the conditions, mentioned how the Men in Blue going all the way or not will depend on how they will be able to handle the pressure of expectations. Australia and South Africa too. For the fourth choice, he went ahead with Afghanistan, while ignoring 2012 and 2016 champions - West Indies.
The Suryakumar Yadav-led side's T20I form was sublime in 2025. They ended up winning 16 out of 19 completed matches. They will be entering the T20 World Cup 2026 as defending champions, having won under legendary cricketer Rohit Sharma during the previous edition, which was played in the Americas and the Caribbean in 2024.
