Cricketers facing mental health issues during the Twenty20 World Cup will have 24-hour access to a psychologist, the International Cricket Council said on Thursday.

The preliminary round matches of the tournament, which will be played under a bio-secure environment, will start on October 17, 2021 in the United Arab Emirates and Oman.
