The Indian cricket team gets its T20 World Cup 2024 campaign underway with the opening clash of the tournament against an unpredictable Ireland side. Though placed in a relatively easier group, India do have a few tough obstacles to cross if they are to qualify for the Super 8 stage of the campaign. Up against Ireland in their opening clash, India also face a rain threat in New York, with one game in the T20 World Cup (England vs Scotland) already washed out due to poor weather condition.
The pitch for India's T20 World Cup 2024 opener against Ireland has been a topic of discussion. India and Ireland will square of on Wednesday at the Nassau Country International Stadium, with the venue only hosting one match so far in the tournament and it was played between South Africa and Sri Lanka on Monday. The pitch, however, turned out to be a shocker in that game as Sri Lanka were bowled out for a meagre 77 in 19.1 overs. Although South Africa won the game in the end, the pitch made the chase trickier as the Proteas had to struggled for 16.2 overs.

The last time the two teams played at the T20 World Cup, it turned out to be a game for the ages with Virat Kohli pulling off a special win for India. Cricket's biggest game will take place on American shores for the first time and former Pakistan captain Afridi too will be keenly following it from the stands.
