The Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York, built in a rapid 106 days for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, is now undergoing dismantling. This process commenced following Wednesday’s game between India and co-hosts United States (USA).

Swift construction and imported pitches

In September 2023, the International Cricket Council (ICC) designated this stadium as a venue for the World Cup. Given the tight timeline, the ICC utilized?? drop-in pitches crafted in Adelaide, Australia. These pitches have been a focal point in the cricket community during the tourna?ment.

Noteworthy matches and pitch dynamics

The Nassau County Stadium? hosted several significant matches:

• India defended a score of 119 against Pakistan.
• South Africa overcame Bangladesh while defending 113.
• Pakistan successfully chased 107 against Canada.
• India completed their successful chase against the USA.

Out of eight matches, teams batting first secured victories three times, while teams chasing won five times. The average first-innings score was 108, with India achieving the highest successf?ul chase of 111 for three against the USA. The highest total set was 137 for seven by C?anada against Ireland, which they defended successfully.

Reason for the Demolition

According to a report on Cricbuzz, there were plans to host Major League Cricket (MLC) games at the stadium. But it did not materialize as MLC officials and franchises showed minimal interest. While a permanent cricket stadium may be built in the future, it is unlikely to be at this location. Not to mention, New York serves as the home base for the Mumbai Indians team (MI NY) in the MLC. The?? Ambani family, owners of MI NY, are anticipated to construct a new stadium soon.

Prospects for a new stadium

The demolition of th?e Nassa??u County International Cricket Stadium signifies the end of its brief existence, but the possibility of a new, permanent cricket venue in New York remains. The involvement of prominent cricket stakeholders, such as the Ambanis, hints at significant developments in cricket infrastructure in the area.

Suryakumar Yadav played a stellar innings to lead India to a seven-wicket victory over co-hosts United States of America (USA) in the Group A match of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. The game was held at Nassau C??ounty ??International Cricket Stadium in New York on Wednesday (June 12).

USA’s brave performance against India

In the game, USA put up a valiant fight but ultimately fell short against the formidable Indian team. Batting first on a challenging pitch, USA managed to post a total of 110/7. The pitch conditions made it difficult for the batters to score freely, but USA, in the absence of their regular skipper Monank Patel, showed resilience in their innings. However, India’s bowling attack kept the pressure on, preventing the hosts from setting a more daunting target, under the leadership of Arshdeep Singh who picked up four wickets.

Early setbacks for India

India faced a shaky start to their chase, thanks to a brilliant spell from USA’s left-arm pacer Saurabh Netravalkar. In the very first over, he claimed the prized wicket of Virat Kohli for a golden duck. Netravalkar continued his impressive performance by dismissing Indian captain Rohit Sharma for just 3 runs in the third over, leaving India struggling at 10/ 2. The early breakthroughs gave USA a glimmer of hope as they?? put India under significant pressure.

Suryakumar Yadav’s match-winning knock

Despite the early setbacks, Suryakumar Yadav anchored India’s innings with a composed and determined knock. After a brief 29-run partnership with Rishabh Pant, who was dismissed for 18, India found themselves in a precarious position at 39/3. Nevertheless, Suryakumar stood firm and crafted a crucial unbeaten 50 off 49 balls. His innings was characterized by patience and strategic shot selection, which ultimately steadied India’s chase. Suryakumar’s unbroken partnership of 72 runs with Shivam Dube, who provided solid support, g??uided India to victory.

Devisha Shetty and Rohit Sharma’s contrasting reaction

The flawless innings of Suryakumar Yadav had a few moments of scare. A pivotal moment in the match came in the 14th over when Suryakumar, batting confidently, edged a ball that soared high into the air. Saurabh Netravalkar, positioned at short third-man, moved swiftly to attempt the catch but unfortunately dropped i??t, granting the 33-year-ol??d a crucial reprieve when he was on 22.

The cameras captured the immediate reactions of Suryakumar’s wife, Devisha Shetty, and skipper Rohit. Devisha, who had been watching anxiously, breathed a sigh of relief and smiled as her husband continued his innings. In contrast, Rohit  displayed ??visible frustration at the risky shot selection by his teammate.

Pakistan all-rounder Imad Wasim demonstrated his exceptional fielding skills with a sharp and clinical direct hit to dismiss Nicholas Kirton during the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 clash against Canada. The batter was caught well short of his crease, highlighting a pivotal moment in the match at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium on Tuesday (June 11). Imad’s quick reflexes and precision in the field were crucial in shifting the momentum in Pakistan’s favour.

Pakistan asserts control

Pakistan gradually asserted control over the contest following a bright start by Canada. Despite an initial push, Canada finished the powerplay at 30/2, with runs needed quickly to build a competitive total. The Canadian side looked to capitalize on this start, but Pakistan’s fielding and bowling remained tight. Following early breakthroughs by Mohammad Amir and Shaheen Afridi, P?akistan continued to maintain their grip on the game.

Imad Wasim’s brilliant run-out

Aaron Johnson began the middle-overs phase on a positive note, as Haris Rauf conceded 13 runs off his first five deliveries, putting Pakistan under some pressure. On the last ball, Johnson stroked the ball towards cover, initiating a quick single. What followed was utter confusion, as Kirton was stranded midway. Attempting to scramble back to the crease at the bowler’s end, Kirton found himself well short, thanks to Imad’s direct hit. With only a couple of stumps to aim at, Imad’s precise throw hit the bull’s eye, resulting in a critical run-out that further dented Canada’s innings.

Canada’s resilience and Pakistan’s comeback

Despite the setback of losing Kirton, who had previously scored a match-winning 49 against Ireland, Canada showed resilience. Johnson’s half-century pushed Pakistan’s bowlers on the backfoot on a tricky New York pitch. Nonetheless, Pakistan made a strong comeback, eventually dismissing Canada for 104 runs in their allotted 20 overs

Pakistan’s steady chase

In reply, Pakistan’s chase began with the early fall of opener Saim Ayub. However, the experienced duo of Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan stabilized the innings, adding a crucial 63-run partnership for the second wicket. After Babar’s dismissal, Fakhar Zaman fell cheaply, but Rizwan’s composed run-a-ball 53 guided Pakistan home in this must-win match, ensuring they stayed alive in the tournament.

In a crucial Group A match at the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, Pakistan clinched a much-needed victory over Canada at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Tuesday (June 11). The highlight of the match was a sensational delivery by Pakistan’s left-arm pacer Mohammad Amir, which bowled Canada opener Navneet Dhaliwal, setting the tone for Pakistan’s dominance.

After winning the toss and opting to bowl first, Pakistan captain Babar Azam brought Shaheen Afridi to bowl the first over. However, Shaheen’s over proved costly, conceding 11 runs, including two boundaries. Naseem Shah followed, giving away another five runs in the ??second over, allowing Canada to start strongly at 16/0.

Mohammad Amir’s ripper dismantles Navneet Dhaliwal’s middle stump

Realizing the need for a breakthrough, Babar Azam introduced the v?eteran left-arm pacer Amir into the attack for the third over. Amir immediately showcased his class and experience. Despite conceding a boundary off h??is first ball, where Dhaliwal played a stylish short-arm jab through cover-point, Amir maintained his focus.

On the very next delivery, Amir bowled a full-length inswinger targeting the middle stump. Dhaliwal, attempting to defend from the back foot, completely misjudged the ball. The delivery swung sharply, beating Dhaliwal’s inside edge and crashing into his middle stump. This spectacular wicket by Amir not only dismissed a dangerous opener but also set the tone for Pakistan’s supremacy in the match.

Aaron Johnson’s fighting knock

Despite the early breakthrough, Canada managed to post a respectable total of 106/7 in their 20 overs. Aaron Johnson was the standout performer, scoring a solid 52 off 44 balls. Johnson’s innings provided the backbone for Canada, allowing them to reach a competitive total, especially considering the challenging conditions at the New York venue.

Pakistan’s successful chase

Chasing 107, Pakistan had a shaky start in the powerplay. Saim Ayub, brought in place of Iftikhar Ahmed, opened the innings with Mohammad Rizwan. Nevertheless, the decision to split the usual Rizw?an-Babar partn??ership did not pay off, as Ayub fell cheaply for 6 off 12 balls.

Nonetheless, the seasoned duo of Babar and Rizwan steadied the innings with a crucial 63 runs partnership off 62 balls. Babar’s composed innings ensured stability, though he was dismissed just before Pakistan could secure victory. Rizwan, showcasing his experience and skill, remained unbeaten with a run-a-ball 53, guiding Pakistan to victory by seven wickets with 15 balls to spare.

In Match 21 of the T20 World Cup 2024 at New York’s Nassau County International Cricket Stadium on Monday (June 10), Bangladesh gained an early advantage as Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Taskin Ahmed wreaked havoc on the South African top order. By the end of the powerplay, Bangladesh had South Africa reeling at just 23 run?s, with four key wickets already fallen.

Early damage by Bangladesh bowlers

Tanzim Hasan played a pivotal role in dismantling the South African top order, claiming the wickets of Reeza Hendricks (0), Quinton de Kock (11) and Tristan Stubbs (0). Meanwhile, Taskin struck a crucial blow by dismissing the key wicket captain, Aiden Markram, for just 4 runs.

Taskin Ahmed’s remarkable delivery: Fall of Aiden Markram

Taskin angled the delivery in, pitching it on a length around the off stump. Markram, eager to assert himself, went for the drive, hoping to capitalize on any loose deliveries. However, the ball held its line after pitching, exhibiting minimal movement and catching Markram off guard. Markram, expecting the ball to shape away, played his shot from the middle stump. Nevertheless, the lack of deviation deceived him as the ball struck the inside half of the off stump, shattering his stumps in the process. It was a classic case of misjudgment, compounded by Taskin’s impeccable execution.

Nassau County International Cricket Stadium Pitch Report

The pitch at Nassau County International Cricke??t Stadium has challenged batters throughout the competition. Unlike typical T20 tracks, it favours the bowlers due to its slower pace and assistance to swing bowlers. Openers, in particular, struggle a?gainst early seam action, disrupting their rhythm.

This unique surface provides c?rucial support to bowlers who are often disadvantaged in T20 cricket globally. Batters must adapt to the slower pitch, relying on timing and pre??cision rather than power-hitting. Despite a faster outfield, boundaries are hard to come by, emphasizing shot selection.

SA vs BAN: Dream11 Prediction Picks:

• Wicketkeepers: Quinton de Kock, Litton Das
• Batters: Reeza Hendricks, Tawhid Hridoy, Tristan Stubbs
• All-rounders: Shakib Al Hasan, Rishad Hossain, Marco Jansen

India lost both openers, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, cheaply after Pakistan captain Babar Azam opted to field i?n the high-octane clash between the arch-rivals at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Sunday (June 9). Kohli was dismissed for just 4 runs off three balls, while captain Rohit departed for 13 off 12 balls during the T20 World Cup 2024 clash.

Virat Kohli’s dismissal

Rain interrupted play after the first over, and Kohli came to the crease when the game resumed. He started promisingly by elegantly driving a full-length delivery from Naseem Shah through the covers for a boundary on the first ball he faced after the restart.?? However, Shah bowled a short, slow, and wide ball on the third delivery, tempting Kohli to go for a big hit.

Expecting a quicker delivery, Kohli misjudged the pace and timing of the ball, leading to a mistimed cut shot that sailed straight into the hands of the fielder at point to fielder Usman Khan. The dismissal was a ?result of meticulous planning by the Pakistani captain. Just two balls earlier, Babar had adjusted the field, moving a gully fielder to point, which ultimately set the trap for Kohli’s dismissal. This is only the second time Kohli has been dismissed by Pakistan in?? T20 World Cups.

Rohit Sharma’s wicket

Following Kohli’s departure, Rohit was also dismissed cheaply. The Indian captain fell to Pakistan speedster Shaheen Afridi after scoring 13 runs off 12 balls. Afridi delivered an inswinger on a good length, targeting the pads. Rohit attempted to whip the ball into the leg side but didn’t get the middle of the bat, resulting in a fine catch by Haris Rauf, stationed at deep square leg, who move?d to his left to complete the dismissal.

Pakistan dropped wicketkeeper-batter Azam Khan for their high-stakes Group A match of the T20 World Cup 2024 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Sunday (June 9). The toss was delayed by almost half an hour because of slight rain, with overcast and windy conditions prevailing. Sunday’s match is taking on the same pitch that hosted the Netherlands-South Africa clash on S?aturday, which the Proteas won by fou?r wickets.

The reason behind Azam Khan’s absence

Azam was replaced by all-rounder Imad Wasim, who had missed the opening match against the United States of America (USA) due to a side strain. The much-anticipated encounter faced a delayed start due to rain, but Pakistan captain Babar Azam won the toss and opted to field. For Khan, Babar said he has been rested for this match: “Azam Khan is resting.”

Reflecting on the decision to bowl first, Babar explained, “We will bowl first because of the weather and moisture in the pitch. The conditions suit us, we have four fast bowlers. We will try to use it to our best. Past is past, we are looking forward to today’s match, we are ready and will give our 100%. Always a big game, our confidence is always high for India vs Pakistan matches.”

India’s unchanged lineup

Meanwhile, India captain Rohit Sharma confirmed that India would field an unchanged lineup for the clash, retaining their two finger spinners, Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel and three pacers in the form of Mohammed Siraj, Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh.

India have a strong head-to-head record against Pakistan in Men’s T20 World Cup meetings, leading 6-1. India secured a comfortable eight-wicket victory against Ireland in the??ir openin??g match at the same venue earlier this week.
