The route to the final
How it works
All 10 teams will play each other once in the round-robin group stage at 10 English grounds, plus one in Wales. The top four sides will advance to the semi-finals. The hosts, England, are the bookies’ favourites but must watch out for Virat Kohli’s India and the defending champions, Australia.
