On June 1, 2024, the T20 World Cup will get off in Texas with the opening match between the hosts, the United States of America, against Canada. The cricket community will see a big opening ceremony of the campaign prior to the second match of the season in Guyana, rather than the first, in an apparent odd choice made by the officials. Prior to the West Indies vs. Papua New Guinea match in the T20 World Cup on June 02, there will be a curtain-raiser event.

He said, "That tells you about the growing impact of the sport in the world and the United States is more than willing to accept the change and are probably the first ones on a global scale to accept it, in a way, with the World Cup," before leaving India to travel to New York to meet up with his fellow members of the national team.
It's a terrific beginning. It will have a significant impact and is the best approach to get started. "I hope it continues for a long time, as it's kind of a domino effect," he said at the outset.
