The T20 Men’s Cricket World Cup has already started, and the matches of the league stage are currently going on. Today, India will start its World Cup campaign under the leadership of Rohit Sharma, and the team will be competing with Ireland.
There are four groups: A, B, C, and D. India is part of Group A, alongside the USA, Pakistan, Ireland, and Canada. Today, India and Ireland are going to lock horns, and the match is scheduled to take place at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.
