India vs Pakistan 19th Match ICC T20 World Cup 2024
In week two of the 2024 T20 World Cup, fans are gearing up for an epic showdown between cricket giants India and Pakistan. The match is set to take place at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Sunday afternoon, promising an electrifying atmosphere.
This rivalry between India and Pakistan is one of the fiercest in sports, and with a temporary 34,000-seat stadium in East Meadow, the excitement is palpable. It’s being touted as the ‘Super Bowl on steroids’, and cricket enthusiasts are eagerly anticipating every moment.

Virat Kohli, fresh from winning his second orange cap at the IPL, is likely to continue opening the innings for India, despite a disappointing start in their first match. Meanwhile, Rishabh Pant seems to have solidified his spot at number three after impressive performances in warm-up games and against Ireland.
For Pakistan, Babar Azam has been a consistent performer at the top of the batting order. But to pose a serious challenge to India, they’ll need significant contributions from Mohammad Rizwan, Usman Khan, and Fakhar Zaman, especially after their top-order struggled in the previous match against the US.
Considering the pitch conditions in Nassau County, which are expected to favor pacers, Pakistan will rely heavily on Afridi’s bowling prowess. The left-arm speedster has been impressive in powerplays, having taken the second-most wickets in T20s since 2019, just behind New Zealand’s Tim Southee.
India squad:
Rohit Sharma (c), Hardik Pandya, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant, Sanju Samson, Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj
Pakistan squad:
