T20 World Cup: Vaughan, Pathan Slam ICC For 'sub Standard' New York Pitch, Call It 'unsafe' For Players
Nassau County International Cricket Stadium: Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan and ex-England captain Michael Vaughan slammed the International Cricket Council (ICC) for the "sub standard" pitch at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, New York after Men in Blue's opening game against Ireland on Wednesday (as per IST).
India defeated Ireland by eight wickets in their T20 World Cup opener as another match at the venue cast doubts over the surface. It was the second consecutive game at the stadium where the team was bowled out under 100 runs. Earlier, the clash between Sri Lanka and South Africa saw a similar result.
India skipper Rohit Sharma won the toss and asked Ireland to bat first. Indian bowlers made the most of the conditions and bundled out them for 96 in 16 overs as the ball was keeping low and also showed awkward bounce
