Pakistan will compete against Canada in the Group A match of the T20 World Cup 2024 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. Following an upset against the USA, the Pakistan cricket team are under pressure to bring their tournament campaign back on track with better performances in the remaining matches. Meanwhile, Canada registered their first win in T20 World Cup history after defeating Ireland in their previous match, which will give them the confidence to replicate the heroics of the USA against their upcoming opponents Pakistan.
Pitch Report
The pitches at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium are steadily improving as the T20 World Cup 2024 has gone on, but still, it is quite hard for the batters to assert themselves on the proceedings unless the bowlers execute their plans terribly. In the history of the T20I format, the average first innings total at this venue is 103 after four matches, which still won’t be enough for either Pakistan or Canada to defend in their upcoming fixture.
