The upcoming T20 World Cup in 2024 is going to be co-hosted by the United States of America and the West Indies. The ICC has decided to choose the USA as one of the hosts to popularize cricket in the country and grow the sport there.

During the IPL 2024 match between Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans, the former England captain, Kevin Pietersen, suggested that to popularize cricket in the USA, someone like Virat Kohli needs to play in the T20 World Cup 2024.

In reply, the former head coach of team India, Ravi Shastri, suggested that India has to build the team to win the tournament and the trophy, not just to grow the game. He believes that winning the trophy will automatically lead to the growth of the game.
