IND vs PAK in T20 World Cup 2024: Rahul Dravid is worried about the players getting injured during India vs Pakistan match at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York under IND vs PAK in T20 World Cup 2024. Rahul Dravid has raised questions about the pitch of this stadium.
The bugle has been blown for the T20 World Cup 2024 to be jointly hosted by the US and West Indies. The Indian team will begin its World Cup campaign on June 5 with a match against Ireland. Following that, Team India will face off against archrival Pakistan. Cricket fans all over the world, including India and Pakistan, are looking forward to this match, but Team India's head coach Rahul Dravid has raised everyone's spirits by making a bold statement about the pitch.
On Saturday night, the Indian team played its only practice match against Bangladesh in preparation for the T20 World Cup 2024. Team India won this practice match by 60 runs at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York, but Rahul Dravid noticed something on the pitch that was not good for the players. That is why Dravid has raised questions about the pitch of this stadium.
In a video released by BCCI, Rahul Dravid said that it is a very good thing to get a good hit-out. Obviously, this is a good facility, because he has got it soon. Rahul Dravid expressed concern over this and said that the ground is a bit soft, due to which players can get hamstring and calf injuries. So now we need to work on this area so that the players take care of this thing. This wicket looks a bit heavy from the bottom.
Rahul Dravid further said that sometimes there are some problems, but I believe that we fought very well and handled it very well. Our batsmen scored better than average on that pitch. Also bowled brilliantly. We got a chance to score runs and the match was really great. Hopefully, we will be able to prepare well in the next few days and will be ready for it.
