To Be Drawn In A Group That Includes India And Pakistan Is A Tantalising Prospect, Says Ireland Coach Malan
T20 World Cup: With Ireland set to face India, Pakistan, USA and Canada in Group A of the 2024 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, head coach Heinrich Malan said that playing against the giants from the subcontinent is a tantalising prospect for his team.
All of Ireland’s first-round matches will be played in the USA – two matches in New York, against India and Canada on June 5 and 8 respectively, while the other two matches are scheduled to be played in Lauderhill, Florida – against the USA and Pakistan on June 14 and 16' respectively.
“It’s always an exciting time for players and fans alike when a World Cup draw is revealed, and the planning begins in earnest. To be drawn into a Group that includes India and Pakistan is a tantalising prospect and should attract big crowds, while also to face one of the co-hosts on their home soil adds some spice, and Canada have a proven pedigree in this format so will be a challenging encounter as well.”
