Former Australian cricketer Matthew Hayden has predicted his semi-finalists of the upcoming ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024.
The mega event, co-hosted by the United States and the West Indies, will begin on June 1.
In a discussion with Star Sports, Matthew Hayden named India, England, Australia, and South Africa as his top picks to advance to the semi-finals of T20 World Cup.
“My final four are going to be Australia, India, England, and South Africa,” Matthew Hayden revealed.

“Pakistan is always the dark horse for a World Cup. Their fast bowling lineup is impressive with Shaheen Shah Afridi and Naseem Shah, who wasn’t available for selection in the last World Cup. His return is a big boost. With Mohammad Amir and Haris Rauf, they have a formidable pace attack,” the former Aussies opening batter commented.
“The big three, Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, and Fakhar Zaman, are crucial players. However, their fielding remains a potential weakness. Hopefully, it won’t impact their performances this year. They’re a strong team and definitely one to watch in the T20 World Cup 2024,” Matthew Hayden concluded.
