After a journey of over 22,500 kilometers from Adelaide to Florida, the unique “drop-in” pitch has finally arrived at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in Florida. This development comes just in time for the highly anticipated India vs Pakistan T20 World Cup match scheduled for June.
Watch the ‘drop-in’ pitch getting installed
The news comes courtesy of a recent video shared by a X (formerly known as Twitter) user. The footage shows the intricate process of installing the pitch at the New York Stadium, setting the stage for the much-awaited marquee match of the tournament. Just two weeks ago, the stadium’s outfield was barely noticeable.
However, the viral video confirms that the groundwork has almost been completed, with the outfield now nearly neatly laid. It is pertinent to note that the stadium in New York will host three league stage matches for India.
