New York. Today is the day of the big match in the T20 World Cup. According to Indian time, the match between India and Pakistan is to be held in the T20 World Cup tonight from 8 pm. This T20 World Cup match between India and Pakistan will be held at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. Indian captain Rohit Sharma has raised questions on the pitch of the Nassau stadium where India and Pakistan are to clash in the T20 World Cup match. The reason for this is that a drop-in pitch is being used here.
Indian team captain Rohit Sharma told the media that the curator himself is confused about the behaviour of the pitch. Apart from this, Rohit Sharma also said that the Indian team is not even familiar with the drop-in pitch. Rohit Sharma said that we are from a country where drop-in pitch is not used. He said that it remains to be seen how the pitch works during the match. Rohit Sharma said about the Nassau County Cricket Stadium that the outfield here is large and slow. In such a situation, one has to play intelligently and runs can be scored only by pushing the ball through the gap between the players of the fielding Pakistani team. Rohit Sharma also said that India is not underestimating Pakistan. He said that the Pakistani team must have understood what mistakes they had made in the last match against America. Let us tell you that the American team, playing the T20 World Cup for the first time, made a big upset and defeated Pakistan in the super over.
Now let us tell you what a drop-in pitch is? Drop-in pitches are prepared somewhere far away from the stadium. After preparation, the drop-in pitch is lifted by a crane and placed in a truck. Then the drop-in pitch is brought to the stadium and laid. Drop-in pitches are being used during the World Cup in America. These have been made by Adelaide Oval Turf Solutions of Australia. Drop-in pitches have been prepared under the guidance of Damien Hogg, the main pitch curator of Adelaide Oval Stadium. The maintenance of the pitch is also being done by the team of Adelaide Oval Turf Solutions.
