Edgbston will once again be on the global stage as part of a massive summer of international cricket in 2026. And fans can now enter the Ballot for the best chance to get tickets.
Kicking off a landmark summer for cricket, Edgbaston has been selected as one of seven venues to host the 2026 ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, with England Women taking on Sri Lanka Women in the opening fixture of the tournament on Friday 12 June.
Fresh off a Test Match win at the stadium earlier this year, India Men are set to play against Harry Brook’s England Men for a One Day International (ODI) on Tuesday 14 July. The season then concludes with a five-day Men’s Test between England and Pakistan from Wednesday 9 September, a first Test between the two sides in Birmingham since 2016.
Vitality Blast Men’s Finals Day also returns to Edgbaston for its 14th successive year, with the date to be confirmed soon.
