ICC Breaks Silence Over Criticism Surrounding India vs Ireland Pitch In T20 World Cup
The Nassau County ground's track, which is "bordering on dangerous with huge open cracks", has become a concern in the ongoing T20 World Cup and the ICC on Thursday conceded that the tracks used so far "have not played as consistently as we would have all wanted". The concerns were heightened after India opened their campaign with an eight-wicket win in a low-scoring match against Ireland, who were bowled out of 96 in just 16 overs. India skipper Rohit Sharma, who scored a half century in the successful chase, was hit on his right bicep by pacer Josh Little and was forced to retire hurt. The ball that struck him suddenly took off from length on a pitch that offered a great degree of uneven bounce. Rishabh Pant was also hit on his left elbow during his 36 not out.
