Construction is well underway for the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York, a project that was once considered a pipedream but is now becoming a reality. The stadium, designed by renowned sports-venue architecture firm Populous, will boast a modular 34,000-seat capacity and is located in Eisenhower Park, just 30 miles east of Manhattan.
The International Cricket Council has provided updates on the tight timeline for the stadium, which is set to host eight T20 World Cup matches, including the highly anticipated India vs. Pakistan clash on June 9. Construction began a month ago, with plans for the drop-in pitch area to be completed next month, followed by the stadium itself in early May.
