The ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 in the USA has been a unique experience for all teams, including the Indian cricket team. While they have been excelling on the field, winning both of their Group A matches against Ireland and Pakistan, they have been facing some unexpected challenges off the field. One such issue has been the gym facilities provided by the hotel, which has left the team unhappy.
According to a recent report, the Indian team has been using gym facilities at a popular chain in the city of USA, outside of their hotel in Long Island, due to the inadequate facilities available within the hotel.
This is not a surprise, given that the team was not satisfied with the “average facilities” at Cantiague Park, a venue set up by the ICC as an official net area with six drop-in pitches.

The ICC has been trying to popularize cricket in the USA, which is not a traditional cricketing country. However, this has led to some rushed arrangements and chaos, as described by a source. “We all are aware of the rushed arrangements everywhere. From practice to ground to the gym facilities in the hotel, everything is here and there. Chaos is the right word,” the source said.
Despite these challenges, India is in a strong position to qualify for the Super 8s of the campaign, with two wins under their belt. Their next matches will be against co-hosts USA and Canada, which could be crucial in determining their progress in the tournament.
