Having crossed paths in the major tournament, this meeting marked a historic moment. This was also a sign of a new chapter for cricket in the United States.

ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024

The 2024 T20 World Cup was an exhilarating experience for India, not just as a victory in the World Cup, but because both their professionalism and passion resulted in contending for the honour of the esteemed ICC Trophy. The USA is making its mark on the cricket stage; as a country, they are starting to make a name for themselves in cricket. The USA played reasonably well in the T20 World Cup-they played well against a few teams, including beating Pakistan in a high-scoring Super Over. India comes in with experience, star players, and a legacy at an all-time high, while the USA has some youth with exceptionally talented players from around the world, and a trajectory that leaves them with the potential to be great as a country moving forward. 

The match between India and the USA had all of the build-up, as well as the unknowns one could want. Young players were able to make an imprint by showing their ability for their teams; it will also be hard to forget individual efforts from the likes of Saurabh Netravalkar, Shivam Dube, and Arshdeep Singh. Historically, this match will be remembered for a long time as this was the first time India and the USA played and matched their skills in a cricket match.

The Pre-Match Buzz: A Dream Come True for USA Cricket (Leading up to 2024)

One of the reasons why cricket fans were excited about the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 was the chance to see the USA team play India. On one side, the India National Cricket Team features some of the biggest names in the world, and they have also won their fair share of ICC trophies. On the other side, the US National Cricket Team has been attempting to build a proper cricket infrastructure, competitive teams, and it has been a dream for their fans to witness a proper cricket game between the two teams until 2024. The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 opened the doors for the US team to display their cricket skills, or we can say, their potential. The co-hosting of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 with the West Indies and the USA was a game-changer within cricket, and this match alone was buzzing among cricket fans around the world.

The Historic First Encounter: T20 World Cup 2024 (June 12, 2024)

This was the only T20 match played between the United States National Cricket Team and the India National Cricket Team. It was played on June 12, 2024, during the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, New York, USA. The atmosphere throughout the match was electric, and massive crowds (most Indians) were excited and quite enthusiastic to support their respective teams.

The Match:

  • Toss: The toss for the only T20 match between the United States and India was won by India, and they elected to field first after looking at the pitch.
  • USA Innings: India asked USA to bat first, and they managed to score 110/8 in 20 overs. It was a tough pitch, and India’s bowling attack, with Arshdeep Singh taking 4 wickets with giving away only 9 runs subscription made it hard for USA batters to post a high score. Though Steven Taylor and Nitish Kumar did pretty well, it just was not a challenging score. 
  • India Chase: India chased 111 easily and ended with 10 balls to spare. The star was Suryakummar Yadav, who managed a half-century (50* runs of 49 balls) under pressure after we lost our star players Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma early on (Saurabh Netravalkar took the two wickets). This is why he is considered one of the best T20 batsmen of today. 
  • Result: India wins by 7 wickets (10 balls to spare).
