(Reuters) - British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced a 35 million pounds ($44.35 million) package on Friday that will primarily go into the construction of 16 all-weather domes in cities that will host T20 World Cup matches in 2026 and 2030.

England and Wales are set to host the 2026 Women's T20 World Cup while England, Scotland and Ireland will host the 2030 men's edition, with Sunak saying the domes will help participation in cricket throughout the year at the grasroots level.
