In an exciting announcement, it has been revealed that England's Edgbaston Stadium will serve as the fan park for the highly anticipated match between rivals India and Pakistan in the 2024 T20 World Cup on June 9. With a capacity of up to 8,000 spectators, the stadium has been selected by the International Cricket Council as one of the few host venues for this prestigious event.
This will be the first time that fans in the UK can experience the thrill of watching a live cricket match on the big screen within the stadium itself. According to the official statement from the venue, the atmosphere will be further enhanced by the presence of comedian and cricket commentator Aatif Nawaz, as well as former players from both India and Pakistan.
The Chief Executive of Edgbaston, Stuart Cain, expressed his excitement at being chosen as one of the T20 World Cup Fan Zone locations, stating that it is a fantastic opportunity for the local community to be a part of this thrilling event. He also shared his belief that the rivalry between Pakistan and India will create an electrifying atmosphere, similar to the one witnessed during the 2019 Cricket World Cup held at the same venue.
It is worth noting that India and Pakistan have only faced each other in international competitions since 2013, when cricket ties between the two countries were suspended. In the previous T20 World Cups, India has emerged victorious in five out of their six encounters, including the 2007 final. And now, after a long hiatus, the two teams will finally meet again on June 9 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.
Fans from both sides are eagerly anticipating this match, and with the fan park at Edgbaston Stadium, they will have a unique opportunity to be a part of the excitement and cheer on their respective teams.
