Sly Dig of Iceland Cricket at the ICC Over Yet Another India vs. Pakistan Clash In A T20 World Cup Group Stage
The social media handle of Iceland Cricket is well known for its witty takes on all things cricket, and this time, it came up with a funny jibe at the International Cricket Council. The fixtures for the T20 World Cup 2024 were announced on Friday, with India and Pakistan finding themselves in the same group. On June 9, the much-anticipated clash will take place in New York. It has become common for these two teams to end up in the same group when it comes to international competitions, and considering they do not play bilateral series, these games attract a lot of attention and fanfare.
Iceland Cricket referred to the very fact that India and Pakistan end up in the same group most of the time in international competitions. Their post read, "How much money does the ICC require not to put India and Pakistan in the same World Cup group?"
India is clubbed with the Pakistan cricket team, Ireland, Canada, and co-hosts the USA in Group A for the league stage.
India will open their World Cup campaign with a match against Ireland on June 5 in New York.
