Schedule for 2024 T20 WC most complicated ever: ICC

Agency :
The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Wednesday said the schedule for this year’s T20 World Cup in the United States and West Indies had been “the most complicated ever to draft”.
The tournament will feature a record 20 teams, up from 16 in the 2022 edition, and be staged at nine venues across North America, including New York, which will have a 34,000-seater stadium in Nassau County.
The Long Island ground was unveiled Wednesday by the ICC and is due to host the hotly-anticipated India-Pakistan clash on June 9 among its eight scheduled World Cup games.
It will be a temporary modular stadium with drop-in pitches but will not be equipped with floodlights.
“We are in New York because there is a hotbed of cricket fans in New York and we are bringing some of the most eagerly anticipated cricket matches including possibly the most eagerly anticipated cricket match of all to that venue,” Chris Tetley, the ICC’s Head of Events, told reporters in an online media roundtable.
