The Nassau County International Cricket Stadium project continues to rapidly take shape in Eisenhower Park, New York. The East Stand’s modular framework is nearing completion, and the West Stand is on schedule to be finished in two weeks. These two stands will accommodate more than 24,000 fans. The final pieces are being put in place for the north and south premium hospitality and media pavilions, as well as the modular stadium’s outfield, and the pitch block still maturing in South Florida.
The excitement surrounding the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup continues to build.
