As per the report, the match will be played in a pop-up stadium on the outskirts of New York. A 34,000-seater temporary stadium will be constructed for the tournament in New York.

The latest census data of the city has revealed that around 7,11,000 Indian and about 1,00,000 people of Pakistani origin live in New York, which could be the reason why the match is being played there.
