Within three months, Nassau County International Cricket Stadium—which will play host to the much awaited Twenty20 World Cup match between India and Pakistan—should be completed. The T20 World Cup matches that will take place in New York City have been announced by the International Cricket Council (ICC). The contest between the rival cricket teams is set to take place on June 9 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, which has the capacity to hold 34,000 spectators. This encounter is one of eight T20 World Cup matchups.
The ICC revealed information about the newest cricket ground in the world, stating that the recently installed cricket pitch and arena is the world’s first modular stadium.
“A variety of seating options, such as VIP and hospitality suites, premium and general admission, a special party deck, and cabanas, will be available at the stadium.” This project is centered around sustainability. A post on the official ICC X account stated, “The grandstands, which were formerly used for the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix, are being repurposed for the T20 World Cup venue.”
The testing phase is expected to start the week of May 13, according to Chris Tetley, head of events at ICC. Before the World Cup matches begin on June 3, this phase will feature warm-up matches to provide the organizers a better idea of the location.
