NEW DELHI: The first group of Indian players to travel to the United States has arrived in New York to participate in the T20 World Cup 2024.
The Indian cricket team, led by captain Rohit Sharma, pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah, and top-ranked T20I hitter Suryakumar Yadav, departed for the US earlier on Saturday.
Using its official social media account, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) posted a video showing the players traveling to the United States in preparation for the T20 World Cup.
The Indian cricket players were seen getting on the team vehicle and departing the New York airport in the footage.
"Touchdown New York! #TeamIndia have arrived for the #T20WorldCup," BCCI wrote on X.
On June 5, India will play Ireland in the T20 World Cup at the brand-new Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. The match between India and Pakistan is scheduled for June 9.
Their Group A matches will be concluded later on June 12 against the USA, the tournament co-host, and on June 15 against Canada.
