Win Projections to be updated soon
On June 9, at Nassau County Stadium in New York, India and Pakistan squared off in Match 19 of the T20 World Cup 2024. Pakistan chose to field first after winning the toss. As is his custom, India skipper Rohit Sharma misplaced something important at the toss. This time, the opener for India forgot he had the penny in his pocket and began frisking because everyone was expecting the captain to pull the pin.
After Babar Azam eventually won the toss, Rohit also expressed interest in bowling first due to the cloudy circumstances. Azam Khan was rested for the game, and Imad Wasim, a spinning all-rounder, took his place. The Men-in-Green only made this significant alteration. Right-handed batsman Azam is struggling at bat, as evidenced by his disappointing England series and duck against the United States of America.

There is no way we can get ready for this kind of weather. Suryakumar Yadav
The rain started just as the match was about to begin, expressing its presence. According to weather projections, there was a sixty percent probability of rain; therefore, the toss was postponed for over half an hour.
The rain is predicted to have an effect on the game at Nassau County Stadium, a recently constructed venue, as the damp outfield may make it difficult for the spinners to maintain control of the ball. Teams are not ready for the weather component, according to Suryakumar Yadav.

“Our preparations have been good so far, but we absolutely can’t plan for weather like this. Thought is crucial in this format; therefore, I won’t consider avoiding any shots on this course. I’ll try to stay if that’s what the team demands. I’m definitely looking forward to it because the two teams have always had fantastic competition,” Suryakumar remarked before the match.
