There is no competition in sports like this one.
This weekend in New York, there will be a historic encounter between Pakistan and India in the ongoing ICC Men's T20 Cricket World Cup. The tournament began in Texas on Saturday, June 1st, with the United States and Canada playing the first match.
The U.S., which is co-hosting the T20 competition for the first time, will see the two neighboring countries play against one another for the first time on Sunday.
In a prior interview with USA TODAY, ICC CEO Geoff Allardice stated, "India vs Pakistan is one of the greatest international sporting rivalries in the world of sport and to bring that match as part of a T20 World Cup to New York is a very exciting moment for our sport."
India and Pakistan have each claimed a one T20 World Cup victory. Pakistan won the title in 2009, while India won the first edition in 2007.
The start time, players, and viewing instructions for the Pakistan vs. India match in the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup are all listed here.

At differing costs, tickets for the match may also be bought via independent companies including Stubhub, Tickets Center, and SeatGeek.
