Nested Method option can be used in NSum.

For example:

In[1]:= NSum[1/(x20*Sin[x]^2), {x, 2, Infinity}, Method -> NIntegrate]

NIntegrate::ncvb:
  NIntegrate failed to converge to prescribed accuracy after 7
    recursive bisections in x near x = 18.8764.

Out[1]= 1.16782 10^-6

In[2]:= NSum[1/(x20*Sin[x]^2), {x, 1, Infinity}, Method -> {NIntegrate,
MaxRecursion -> 100}]

NIntegrate::slwcon:
  Numerical integration converging too slowly; suspect one of the
following:
   singularity, value of the integration being 0, oscillatory
integrand, or
   insufficient WorkingPrecision. If your integrand is oscillatory try
using
   the option Method->Oscillatory in NIntegrate.

Out[2]= 1.41228
