The match between Pakistan and India is scheduled for June 9th in New York
20 April, 2024
Discussions about the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 match between Pakistan and India have already begun, even though the match is scheduled for June 9th in New York.
The main question about this high-stakes match is what the pitch will be like, as the New York stadium has been temporarily prepared and is hosting matches of this level for the first time.
It has been reported that the pitch at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium will resemble that of Adelaide. Nassau County International Cricket Stadium has been specially prepared for the World Cup.
The CEO of T20 World Cup Brett Jones mentioned that constructing a temporary stadium posed many challenges. During construction, there were record levels of rain and cold temperatures.
Brett Jones mentioned that the idea for a temporary stadium was taken from Olympic Games golf courses and Formula One. This is the same infrastructure used in these events. The services of people who have been working with this type of infrastructure for 20 to 30 years were enlisted.
Continuing his statement, Brett Jones said that drop-in technology was used for the pitch, with the help of Adelaide expert curator Damian Hoff. The drop-in pitches were prepared in Florida's warm climate and will be transported to New York closer to the event. He mentioned that these pitches will be similar to those in Adelaide and Melbourne.
Lastly he mentioned that these pitches will be similar to those in Adelaide and Melbourne and he believe these wickets will play just like those Damian has been preparing. Adelaide pitches have a very good track record, and these will play similarly.
It is worth noting that the tournament will commence on 2 June with co-hosts USA taking on neighbors Canada, while fellow hosts the West Indies will play Papua New Guinea in Guyana on the second day of group play.
