The International Cricket Council (ICC) is not bothered by India's concerns over pitch fears at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium and has not indicated plans to move any 2024 T20 World Cup matches. bbc reported on Thursday.
Among many teams, the unpredictable entry into New York has become a cause for concern. Two matches have been played at the venue so far. Furthermore, a total of 350 runs have been scored.
South Africa and Sri Lanka played the first match at the venue, where the Islanders batted first and managed just 77 runs. This was his lowest score in T20Is. While India managed to defeat Ireland by 96 runs in the second match.
Pundits and pundits criticized New York for raising serious concerns on the surface; However, the ICC has no contingency plans to move matches from New York to Florida or Texas, according to bbc.
The most anticipated Pakistan vs India match of the T20 World Cup will also be played in New York. This game is expected to receive a crowd of 32,000 or more to fill the field.
As it is the biggest rivalry in cricket, a low-scoring match would not fit the size of the match.
Due to the unpredictable bounce of the pitch, it is worth mentioning that India expressed concern about the safety of their batsmen.
Dinesh Karthik, a former Indian cricketer, had earlier expressed his discontent with New York.
Karthik said Cricbuzz: “It's not the best of pitches. T20 cricket as a format is generally tilted in favor of batsmen. This one is tilted in favor of bowlers, but not for the right reasons. It's spongy and some bounce over the head “So it stays low too. It's not a good view. “This launch hasn't settled in Adelaide, it was kept in Miami because the weather is better there and then it was relocated back to New York.”
“Walk-in launches are new and have worked well, especially in Australia. But here the thing has not been solved. It will be a point that people will talk about before the big match (India vs Pakistan) in a few days,” he said.
