India won the toss and elected to field first against Ireland in their opening match of T20 World Cup 2024.

Both have been offered assistance by the pitch at Nassau. Because to the increased bounce off the surface and swing in the South Africa vs. Sri Lanka game, SA pacers were able to strangle the SL hitters. However, the odd ball staying low and the ball twisting sharply helped the tweakers as well.

On June 5, New York City will most likely see clear sky during the day and cloudy weather at night. The temperature will range from 26 to 17 degrees Celsius. The wind will blow at speeds ranging from 10 to 15 km/h, with humidity levels hovering around 80%.
