Nassau County International Stadium: In the 25th match of T20 World Cup 2024, Team India defeated America by 7 wickets. With this victory, Team India has reached the Super-8. However, after this victory of Team India, such a news has come which is difficult to believe. New York's Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, where the match was played, is now disappearing, that is, the work of removing the Nassau Stadium has started.
Why is Nassau Stadium being removed?
The Nassau Stadium is a modular stadium that was temporarily built for T20 World Cup matches. The stadium hosted 8 group stage matches of the T20 World Cup, including the India-Pakistan match. Since the Nassau Stadium is temporary, the demolition process has now begun. Bulldozers and cranes have arrived to dismantle the stadium. The stadium took only 106 days to build and cost Rs 250 crore.
What was special about Nassau Stadium?
The biggest feature of the Nassau Stadium was that it was the world's largest modular stadium. It had a seating capacity of about 30 thousand people. Along with this, a special drop-in pitch was ordered from Australia for this stadium. But unfortunately it became difficult for the batsmen to score runs on the pitch of Nassau County Stadium. The highest score in the total 8 matches played at Nassau County Stadium was only 137 runs. While the highest score of 110 runs was chased by Team India in this stadium.
