Seven cities hosted matches in the tournament –Bangalore,Dharamshala,Kolkata,Mohali,Mumbai,Nagpur, andNew Delhi. For the second time, there were 16 participating teams, 10 of which qualified automatically due to their status asfull members of theInternational Cricket Council (ICC), and another six qualifying through the2015 World Twenty20 Qualifier. The tournament was divided into three stages. Inthe first stage, the eight lowest-ranked teams played off, with the top two joining the eight highest-ranked teams in theSuper 10 stage. Finally, the top four teams overall contested theknockout stage. Inthe final, played atEden Gardens,Kolkata, theWest Indies defeatedEngland by four wickets. Indian batsmanVirat Kohli was named the player of the tournament, while Bangladesh'sTamim Iqbal and Afghanistan'sMohammad Nabi led the tournament in runs and wickets, respectively.
For the second time, the tournament featured 16 teams. All ten full members qualified automatically, joined by the sixassociate members: Ireland, Scotland, Netherlands, Afghanistan, Hong Kong and Oman who all qualified through the2015 ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier, played inIreland andScotland between 6 and 26 July 2015. Oman made its debut in the tournament.[1]
The top eight Full Member nations in theICC T20I Championship rankings as of 30 April 2014 automatically progressed to theSuper 10 stage, with the remaining eight teams competing in thegroup stage. From the group stage, Bangladesh and associate nation Afghanistan advanced to the Super 10 stage.[2][3] Test playing nation Zimbabwe and Ireland failed to advance to the Super 10 stage for the second time.[4]
In October 2015Shahryar Khan, chairman of thePakistan Cricket Board (PCB), said that Pakistan would consider pulling out of the tournament if theseries against India did not go ahead.[5] Although the series was ultimately cancelled, Pakistan received government clearance in February 2016 to visit India to compete in the tournament.[6] In early March, Pakistan sent a delegation to assess the security arrangements ahead of the tournament.[7] Following the visit, the match between India and Pakistan was moved from Dharamsala toEden Gardens in Kolkata, at the request of the PCB, and on 11 March, Pakistan confirmed their participation at the tournament.[8][9][10]

On 21 July 2015, the Indian cricket board announced the name of the cities which will be hosting the matches.Bangalore,Chennai,Dharamshala,Mohali,Mumbai,Nagpur andNew Delhi were the venues along withKolkata, which also hosted the final of the event.[12] Chennai could not host a match due to legal issues regarding the construction of three stands at theM. A. Chidambaram Stadium.[13]VCA Stadium,Nagpur hosted all Group B games andHPCA Stadium,Dharamshala hosted all Group A matches.[14] TheIndia vs Pakistan match, was scheduled to be played at HPCA Stadium.[15] With the announcement that HPCA authority could not provide the required security for Pakistani team,[16] the match was moved toEden Gardens,Kolkata.[17]
There were some initial concerns about theFeroz Shah Kotla stadium in Delhi hosting the first semi-final, due to one of the block of stands needing a clearance certificate from theSouth Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC).[18] If the clearance was not approved, the ICC andBCCI were planning an alternative venue to host the match.[19] However, on 23 March, theDelhi & District Cricket Association were granted clearance from the SDMC to use the block at the Feroz Shah Kotla.[20]
