Many cricket fans would know that the toss is used to decide which team will bat or bowl first. The captains of the two T20 World Cup teams come out in the middle approximately 30 minutes before the scheduled start of the match. Generally, the skipper of the home team tosses the coin up in the air.

While the coin is in the air, the other captain needs to call either heads or tails. Toss prediction is tough for any man, even if he is the best captain in the world. After the coin lands on the surface, the match referee looks at it and announces the coin toss winner.
