The Indian cricket team is getting ready for the upcoming ICC 2024 T20 World Cup, which will be held in the USA and West Indies starting from June 2. The first batch of Indian cricketers, including captain Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Suryakumar Yadav, and head coach Rahul Dravid, have arrived in New York and have begun their training sessions.
The Men in Blue have been placed in Group A alongside rivals Pakistan, co-hosts USA, Ireland, and Canada. They are set to begin their World Cup campaign against Ireland on June 5 in New York. Before the main event, the team will play a warm-up game against Bangladesh on June 1.
In the previous T20 World Cup in Australia, India was defeated in the semi-finals by England. England went on to win the tournament by defeating Pakistan in the final. India’s only T20 World Cup victory came in 2007 under the leadership of MS Dhoni when they beat Pakistan in the final. The current squad is determined to bring the trophy home once again and replicate that success.
