ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 Ambassador Usain Bolt got a first look at the new stadium alongside some cricket legends and New York sports icons last week.

The official schedule for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 warm-up matches has been announced. These matches will take place from Monday, 27 May to Saturday, 1 June across the USA and at two venues in Trinidad and Tobago.

The final warm-up game will be the one between India and Bangladesh in New York, and it'll also be the first time the fans get an inside look at the newly built structure.

Only one match at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium and one match in the West Indies will be open to fans.

Fans wishing to participate in all pre-sale opportunities must obtain an access code. Nassau County officials will email pre-sale codes to County residents. Those who have already purchased World Cup tickets will receive their pre-sale codes via email from T20 USA, Inc.
