64 teams will play in FIFA World Cup 2030! Can India qualify now?

July 13, 2026 by Uma Shankar

If we look at the history of the FIFA World Cup, from 1998 to 2022 only 32 teams participated in this tournament. But the 2026 World Cup being held in America, Canada and Mexico is the first season which was increased to 48 teams. (PHOTO CREDIT- PTI)FIFA President Infantino has called this new format of 48 teams a big success. According to him, this time even the smaller teams played brilliantly, scored goals and achieved at least one point. This is the reason why FIFA is now considering making it bigger to give opportunity to all small and big teams. (PHOTO CREDIT- GETTY)This news is no less than a big booster for Indian football fans. When 32 teams played in the World Cup, there were very limited seats for Asia (AFC), making it almost impossible for India to qualify. When the teams increased to 48 in 2026, Asia's quota increased and hopes were raised. Now if a total of 64 teams play in 2030, then the qualification quota of Asian countries will increase further. (PHOTO CREDIT- GETTY)A record 9 teams from Asia (AFC) qualified for the FIFA World Cup 2026. Of these, 8 teams got tickets directly and 1 team got tickets through intercontinental playoff. If the number of teams is now 64, then 10 to 11 teams from Asia can enter the tournament. (PHOTO CREDIT- GETTY)
