T20 World Cup: Day Matches Will Even Out Everything, Says RP Singh

Nassau County International Cricket Stadium: The upcoming Men's T20 World Cup in the West Indies and the USA will see 28 out of 55 games being played as day matches, including India's all four league stage fixtures. Former India left-arm fast-bowler RP Singh believes having games in the morning will even out the conditions for both teams as dew won't come into consideration.

India will play their only warm-up against Bangladesh on June 1, before opening their tournament campaign against Group A opponents Ireland on June 5 at the 34,000-seat modular Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York, followed by clashes against Pakistan, USA, and Canada.

This will be a huge shift for India in terms of playing day matches in the T20 World Cup as they have predominantly played their games in the showpiece event in the evening, which Singh believes will also have an impact on the tournament scoring rate, compared to huge scores being posted in IPL 2024.
