The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 is set to make history as cricket travels to new territories. For the first time, the United States will co-host a major cricket tournament alongside the West Indies. This groundbreaking event will bring the centuries-old sport of cricket to a broader audience, especially in the US, where baseball is traditionally more popular.
The ICC has finalized venues in the USA for the games, with the US cricket team currently ranked in the top 20 globally. Although the US cricket team is rarely mentioned in major tournaments or bilateral tours, this event aims to change that, increasing the sport’s fan base and global appeal.
The T20 World Cup will feature 50 matches across the US and the Caribbean, starting on June 2, 2024. The opening match will take place at Grand Prairie Stadium in Texas, where the USA will face Canada. One of the most anticipated matches is the showdown between India and Pakistan on June 9 at Eisenhower Park in Long Island, New York. The tournament will culminate with the final on June 29 in Barbados.
