PAK vs IRE T20 World Cup 2024 Pitch Report: Central Broward Stadium Florida Venue Stats, Record, Average Score

Pakistan (PAK) will take on Ireland (IRE) in the 36th match of the T20 World Cup 2024 on June 16th (8:00 pm IST) at the Central Broward Regional Stadium in Florida.

Pakistan and Ireland find themselves in a desperate situation as they face each other in this T20 World Cup encounter, with both teams on the brink of elimination from the Super 8 race.

Pakistan, one of the pre-tournament favorites, has experienced a shocking campaign so far, managing to secure only one victory out of their three matches. Their batting unit, led by the strong duo of Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan, has failed to fire on all cylinders, while their bowling attack has struggled to make early inroads.

On the other hand, Ireland’s journey has been nothing short of disappointing, as they have yet to open their account after three matches. Their experienced opening pair of Paul Stirling and Andrew Balbirnie has failed to provide the solid starts that have been their hallmark, putting immense pressure on the middle order. They will be desperate to break their winless streak and end their campaign on a high note.

Central Broward Regional Stadium Pitch Report

The track at the Central Broward Regional Stadium assists batters more than bowlers. However, pacers are expected to get movement in the early overs, while spinners will come into play later in the innings. The last two games were abandoned due to rain, and the weather forecast for this game is also not promising, with scattered thunderstorms expected. This might result in a shortened match or no match at all.
