The T20 World Cup 2024 has started with great pomp at show at the two host countries USA and West Indies. The first match for the tournament was played between USA and Canada, where the hosts won the fixture.
India’s first match for the tournament was against Ireland where the former won the match, sending the Irishmen disappointed at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.
On June 9, India will face their long-time rivals, the Pakistan Cricket Team, in a World Twenty20 Cup encounter. The match will take place at the new Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.
Mohammed Shami looks back on his favorite match
Indian veteran bowler Mohammed Shami has always been vocal about his passion fir the game, especially in the matches against team India’s most celebrated rivals, Pakistan. In an older interview, Shami had stated that the rivalry between India and Pakistan was “in his blood”.
Shami has now opened up and spoken about his best match. The veteran thinks that the India vs Pakistan match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground was his favorite, wherein India had defeated Pakistan after a tough battle.
Mohammad Shami said, “India Vs Pakistan at MCG in the T20 World Cup was the best match of my life, more than 100K crowd were present there and Virat Kohli fought till the end and won the match for us by scoring 82 runs”.
Preparations underway for Ind vs Pak
The preparations for the fan favorite India vs Pakistan match are in full swing, with the ICC revealing eight separate “fanparks” that will broadcast the game.
Nirav Modi, an Indian businessman, recently chastised the ICC for overpricing tickets for the highly anticipated match. INDvsPAK tickets can cost up to $20,000 per seat.
The match will undoubtedly be exciting, with fans on both sides eager to see their teams compete and perhaps win.
While India has won their last match at the T20 World Cup 2024, Pakistan couldn’t face the same fate as they got a very disappointing and shameful loss against team USA, that too, in the Super Over.
The match will be telecasted tomorrow live at 8:00 PM IST
