Nassau County Cricket Stadium Ready for T20 World Cup 2024
The Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York is nearing completion ahead of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. The stadium’s four drop-in pitches, cultivated with native Tahoma 31 Bermuda grass, have been installed, while the north and south premium hospitality and media pavilions are on track for imminent completion.
Additional tickets for all matches at the stadium, including the highly anticipated India vs Pakistan clash, will be available through hospitality packages that include food and beverages. Fans can secure their place in history by purchasing tickets on the official T20 World Cup website.
The Nassau County International Cricket Stadium will host its inaugural match on June 3, when Sri Lanka faces South Africa in their opening Group D encounter. The 34,000-capacity stadium will also witness the much-awaited clash between arch-rivals India and Pakistan on June 9.
Anticipation for the T20 World Cup continues to soar, fueled by the release of the official anthem, “Out of this World,” performed by Grammy award-winning artist Sean Paul and Soca superstar Kes. The anthem has captured the excitement and global reach of the tournament.
ICC Head of Events Chris Tetley expressed his delight at the progress of the stadium’s construction. “As we reach the final stages of construction of the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, we are delighted to see a world-class facility ready for the best cricketers in the world,” he said. “We can’t wait to see fans experience their own bit of history, with hospitality options across all matches in New York, including India and Pakistan, we would encourage fans to book now before they sell out.”
The T20 World Cup is set to be a global spectacle, bringing together the world’s top cricketers and passionate fans. The Nassau County International Cricket Stadium will serve as a fitting stage for some of the most thrilling and memorable matches in the tournament’s history.
