India and Pakistan lock horns at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. The cricketing world got together for this highly-anticipated clash in the T20 World Cup 2024. However, not all has gone as per plan, and things have exactly turned out as feared.
After being put into bat, the Men in Blue have crumbled for another low-score at the venue. The trend of low-scores continues at the Nassau County, as Indian batters are bowled out for 119 runs against neighbours Pakistan. With all eyes on the Pakistan batting attack now, the Indian bowlers will have to defend a low-scoring total to win the game.
Experts and broadcasters had predicted a score of 120-130 to be good enough for Team India to defend. However, The Sporting News takes a deep look at the highest successful run chases at the venue at the T20 World Cup 2024.
