Only T&T and USA will host warm-up matches

(CMC) – ICC Men’s Twenty20 World Cup organisers have unveiled the schedule for the official warm-up matches leading into the tournament, and only venues in Trinidad and the United States will stage them.

The 16-match schedule announced on Wednesday by the International Cricket Council (ICC), the world organising body for the sport, showed the matches will be split equally between venues in Trinidad and the United States.

Queen’s Park Oval and Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Trinidad will stage matches, and the three approved international venues in the United States—Central Broward Regional Park in Lauderhill in the state of Florida, Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas in the state of Texas, and Nassau County International Cricket Stadium east of Manhattan in the state of New York—have been carded to host matches.
