With the International Cricket Council (ICC) Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 fast approaching, some fans can finally experience matches in person and feel the excitement within the stadium.

Our research shows that 46% of global travelers are excited to travel abroad for a sporting event as travel restrictions ease, and while some fans may not be able to travel to Oman or the UAE to watch the ICC Men’s T20 tournament live, We are sharing six destinations around the globe to inspire cricket fans to bring their cricket dreams to life as restrictions continue to ease and it becomes safe and responsible to travel again. Whether it’s to enjoy warmer matches in Australia or Barbados, a glass of Pimms in the pavilion in England or feel the energy of the crowds in India or Sri Lanka.

Booking.com is the official accommodation booking partner of the tournament which takes place from 17 October – 14 November. To build added excitement and anticipation for the tournament, We have also enlisted star England cricketer and ICC ODI Cricket World Cup 2019 winner, Jos Buttler, as global campaign ambassador for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021. Jos has been warming up for the forthcoming tournament with a final indoor batting challenge on home soil, trying to beat his own run score of 32, before England head out to the UAE and Oman to face their biggest rivals in T20 cricket. You can also find out about his favourite cricket memories including his most memorable cricket ground to play at in a quick fire Q&A for Booking.com.
