HOWZAT! Gabba delivers T20 on the world stage

2/11/2022

The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup has come to an end at The Gabba with approximately 47,000 fans filling the venue over the three days to watch some of the world’s greatest cricketers at Queensland’s spiritual home of cricket.

The Gabba’s internationally famous wicket hosted eight countries from 30 October to 1 November, for four practice matches and four Super 12 Stage matches – Bangladesh V Zimbabwe, Australia v Ireland, Afghanistan v Sri Lanka & England v New Zealand.

The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup is the largest sporting event held in Australia this year and it put Brisbane on the map for cricket fans watching interstate and overseas.

The Gabba General Manager Mark Zundans said The Gabba was thrilled to have hosted yet another stand-out event to the 2022 calendar. 

“The 2022 ICC Men’s World Cup was a fantastic addition to Queensland’s golden decade of sport ahead of the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games and we’re thrilled to have been able to host the event here at The Gabba,” he said.

“It was great opportunity for The Gabba and Brisbane to again deliver on the world stage and I think the overall feeling from fans that attended was that the event ticked all the boxes.”
