South Florida is hosting the cricket World Cup this week, with matches beginning today and running through the weekend.

Why it matters: The widely watched Men's T20 World Cup is being held in the U.S. for the first time ever, with matches taking place in Florida, New York and Texas.

Details: Local T20 matches will be played at the Central Broward Park and Broward County Stadium in Lauderhill, which has a long history of hosting major cricket matches.

There will be four matches played locally, including the U.S. v. Ireland on Friday at 10:30am. (Tickets for U.S. match start at $60.)
Sri Lanka plays Nepal Tuesday at 7:30pm. (Tickets)
India takes on Canada Saturday at 10:30am. (Tickets)
Pakistan plays Ireland Sunday at 10:30am. (Tickets)

How it works: The tournament features 20 national teams competing for the trophy, Axios Dallas' Naheed Rajwani-Dharsi reports.

Matches will be played in the T20 format, a shorter and more fast-paced form of cricket than test matches and one-day international matches.
