Australia T20 World Cup: Past Records & Wins

Australia has never won the ICC T20 World Cup since its inception in 2007. The best performance of Australia has been its appearance in the finals in 2010 when it had ended up being the runners-up after losing against England by 7 wickets. 

Australia will host the next T20 World Cup in 2022. The nation was originally supposed to host the 2020 edition of the World Cup. However, the ICC postponed the tournament due to the COVID-19 pandemic and confirmed that the T20 World Cup scheduled to be hosted by India in 2021 will take place as planned and Australia will host it in 2022.

The ICC later decided to shift the tournament to the United Arab Emirates and Oman due to growing concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic situation in India and fears of a possible third wave with BCCI remaining as the hosts of the tournament.
