Australia was one of 12 teams that failed to advance to the Super Eight (second group stage) of the 2026 T20 World Cup. This was the first time since the 2009 edition of the T20 World Cup (then called the World Twenty20) that Australia failed to advance beyond the first group stage. The Australian team was knocked out of contention for a Super Eight slot after finishing behind Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe in its group.
