ICC Men’s #T20WorldCup 2024 Three venues in the USA have been confirmed for the mega-event next year ? — ICC (@ICC) September 20, 2023 ICC chief executive Geoff Allardice said, “We’re delighted to announce the three US venues that will host part of the biggest ICC Men’s T20 World Cup ever staged, with 20 teams competing for the trophy. The USA is a strategically important market and these venues give us an excellent opportunity to make a statement in the world’s biggest sport market.” Stadiums to be re-purposed for T20 World Cup The country will be hosting the T20 World Cup for the first time, with the stadiums of Grand Prairie in Dallas, Broward County in Florida and Nassau County in New York being re-purposed for the event. ”We are very excited about the opportunity to use modular stadium technology to present world class cricket in a location that has not previously hosted an ICC global event giving USA cricket fans the chance to watch the world’s best on their doorstep. This technology has been used at previous ICC events to increase venue capacity and it’s routinely used in other major sports around the world. In the USA, it will give us the opportunity to increase the size of the venues in both Dallas and Florida and create what is going to be a stunning venue in New York,” added Allardice. Additionally, a number of other venues including George Mason University in Washington, the new home of MLC team Washington Freedom, have also been identified as potential venues for pre-event matches and training.
