Metro53 - Kolkata (Web Desk) – The first semifinal of the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 will be played today between New Zealand national cricket team and South Africa national cricket team.
The match is scheduled at Eden Gardens, Kolkata, and will start at 6:30 PM Pakistan Standard Time.
This will be the first time these two teams face each other in a T20 World Cup semifinal. Previously, New Zealand has reached the semifinals four times and South Africa three times, but both sides have managed to reach the final only once.
South Africa lost to India in the 2024 final, while the New Zealand side reached the 2021 final, where they were defeated by Australia.
