Demolition of Nassau County's Temporary Cricket Stadium After T20 World Cup

The makeshift Nassau County cricket ground, built quickly for the T20 World Cup, will be dismantled following its conclusion. The venue, which saw fluctuating pitch conditions and packed crowds, particularly in India's match against Pakistan, will have parts shipped back to Las Vegas. A world-class cricket pitch remains in its place.

The Nassau County cricket ground, a temporary structure created specifically for the T20 World Cup, is set for demolition following the end of the tournament, marked by India's seven-wicket triumph over co-hosts USA.

Completed in little over 100 days, the stadium was infamous for its challenging drop-in pitches sourced from Adelaide. Located at the edge of the 930-acre Eisenhower Park in Long Island, the venue featured ten drop-in pitches, four on the main ground and six at the adjacent training facility in Cantiague Park.

According to a New York Times report, the stadium will be taken down following the final match at East Meadow on June 12. Following six weeks of dismantling, parts will be sent back to Las Vegas for a golf event. Despite the stadium's disassembly, a world-class cricket pitch will be left behind.
