England have discovered which nations they will be playing in the Super12 round of the T20 World Cup after the draw for the 2022 tournament was made.

Australia, who will host the tournament, had originally been scheduled to host the competition in 2020, while India were awarded another edition of the tournament last year due to the fact they had originally been set to hold the now-defunct ICC Champions Trophy.

With India eventually unable to host the 2021 tournament, however, action took place in the UAE.

Eoin Morgan’s men reached the semi-final of the competition, suffering defeat at the hands of New Zealand.
