A '''Twenty20 International''' ('''T20I''') is a form of [[cricket]], played between | A '''Twenty20 International''' ('''T20I''') is a form of [[cricket]], played between international members of the [[International Cricket Council]] (ICC), where each team faces a maximum of twenty [[Over (cricket)|overs]]. These matches hold top-class status and are the highest T20 standard. The game is played under the rules of [[Twenty20]] cricket. Starting from the format's inception in 2005, T20I status only applied to [[List of International Cricket Council members#Full members|Full Members]] and some [[List of International Cricket Council members#Associate Members with T20I status|Associate Member]] teams. However, in April 2018, the ICC announced that it would grant T20I status to all its 105 members from 1 January 2019. | ||
The shortened format was initially introduced to bolster crowds for the domestic game, and was not intended to be played internationally, but the first Twenty20 International took place on 17 February 2005 when [[Australia national cricket team|Australia]] defeated [[New Zealand national cricket team|New Zealand]], and the first tournament was played two years later, with the introduction of the [[ICC T20 World Cup]]. In 2016, for the first time in a calendar year, more Twenty20 International matches (100) were played than [[One Day International|ODI]] matches (99).<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/review2016/content/story/1075114.html|title=More results, more Rohit Sharma 2452 runs, and more T20Is than ODIs|date=3 January 2017|website=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref> As of November 2021, 90 nations feature in ICC T20I team rankings.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.icc-cricket.com/rankings/mens/team-rankings/t20i |title=Men's T20I Team Rankings |website=icc-cricket.com |access-date=2022-09-16}}</ref> | The shortened format was initially introduced to bolster crowds for the domestic game, and was not intended to be played internationally, but the first Twenty20 International took place on 17 February 2005 when [[Australia national cricket team|Australia]] defeated [[New Zealand national cricket team|New Zealand]], and the first tournament was played two years later, with the introduction of the [[ICC T20 World Cup]].
