Team India will be up against the United States of America in the first-ever clash between the two teams in cricket in Match No 25 of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup. Many of the players in the USA side have played age-group cricket for India and have Indian heritage before they moved to the Americas in search of greener pastures and hence it will be a huge game for them, playing against India. India too would not want to take the USA likely as the co-hosts are coming off two wins in a row and have some solid T20 players in the line-up.
Both USA and India are in the fray to make it to the Super 8 and whoever wins on Wednesday, June 12 in New York will all but seal the spot. India are favourites but as we saw in the last few games at the venue, the surface has reduced the difference between a big and a small team and hence, another low-scoring thriller might be on the cards.
