While the excitement of the T20 World Cup 2024 has already taken its toll on fans, eyes are on the much-awaited clash between India and Pakistan. The biggest match is expected to be the biggest match of the tournament, as it has been over the years.
India and Pakistan only face each other in ICC events and the Asia Cup and hence the clash between the teams becomes even more special. The two teams will meet for the first time since the ICC World Cup 2023 match, which took place in Ahmedabad and was won by India.
But since Nassau County International Stadium in New York is the newly developed stadium and both teams have no idea about the conditions, it will be a 50-50 clash between the teams. Plus, since both teams have big names, it promises to be a great match.
