With the ICC T20 World Cup just around the corner, the BCCI has taken a proactive step by sending an official to New York to conduct a recce of hotels and facilities. As the United States is an uncharted territory for cricket, this move aims to ensure proper arrangements for the Indian team.
The T20 World Cup is set to be held in the USA for the very first time, presenting a unique challenge for all participating teams. To navigate this unknown territory, the BCCI has dispatched an official to New York to assess the available accommodations and amenities.
The official’s primary responsibility is to evaluate the hotels suitable for the Indian team’s stay. Additionally, they will explore and understand the various facilities and arrangements necessary for the team’s seamless participation in the prestigious tournament.
Major cricketing events in the USA will be uncharted territory for most teams, and India is no exception. The Indian cricket team has previously played a couple of T20I matches in Florida. However, they will be playing in New York for the first time. As the T20 World Cup is on the horizon, having these logistical arrangements made is great news for the BCCI. Once the group stage of IPL 2024 culminates, the Indian crickets will fly to the USA. The IPL knockout stages players will join the squad after the finals.
India’s journey in the T20 World Cup will start on June 5th, 2024. Their first game will be against Ireland.
The BCCI has been observing a proactive stance as they ensure their team is well-prepared to deliver when the games begin in the USA. It sent out an official to conduct a recce on the team’s behalf. From the early arrangements, it appears that Indian cricket will have everything in their favour during the tournament.
