Cricket world converges on LI for World Cup
The Nassau County International Cricket Stadium at Eisenhower Park in East Meadow, Long Island is set to host its first match of the T20 World Cup between Sri Lanka and South Africa. FOX 5 NY's Lissette Nuñez has the details.
LONG ISLAND - The U.S. national cricket team has already made a dent in the hierarchy of the game by beating Pakistan last week at the Twenty20 World Cup.
Now the team is set to play against India on Wednesday on Long Island.
The Americans aren’t expected to win, but neither were they expected to beat Pakistan.
Similar to the match against Pakistan, the Americans will most likely have the crowd's support at the temporary Nassau County International Cricket Stadium.
