The majority of the players in this England squad were also part of the 2022 T20 World Cup-winning side. So these players know what it takes to be world champions and what kind of mentality is required to win this tournament.
The 2024 T20 World Cup squad of England is loaded with experienced players, although they have some young blood in the form of Phil Salt and Will Jacks. But this team does not require young guns to fire, as they already have expertise in playing aggressive cricket.
The England team will reach the Caribbean Islands on May 31 and play their first game of the tournament on June 4 against Scotland in Barbados. In the T20 World Cup 2024, England is placed in Pool B with Australia, Oman, and Scotland.
