    IND vs USA T20 World Cup 2024: First-ever cricket encounter between India and United States
    Both teams have maintained flawless records in the tournament thus far. Rohit Sharma’s team has triumphed in both of their matches, defeating Ireland and arch-rivals Pakistan.


    Digital Desk: India and the United States of America are set to clash on June 12 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York, marking their inaugural encounter in any cricket format.

    Both teams have maintained flawless records in the tournament thus far. Rohit Sharma’s team has triumphed in both of their matches, defeating Ireland and arch-rivals Pakistan.

    Under Monank Patel's leadership, the US has secured two consecutive victories, prevailing over Pakistan and Canada. This upcoming match could bring an end to either team's winning streak, provided the weather permits a complete game, which is forecasted to be unaffected.

    The New York pitch has proven to be challenging for batsmen, with the highest score recorded being 137/7 by Canada against Ireland, and the lowest at 77/10 by Sri Lanka against South Africa. Despite India being all out for 119 against Pakistan, they successfully defended it. While the pitch conditions appear to have stabilized, the match is anticipated to be low-scoring, with bowlers expected to dominate proceedings.

    The victor of this match stands a good chance of advancing to the next round, where the top two teams from each of the four groups will compete in the Super 8 stage. Should India emerge victorious and top Group A, their first Super 8 encounter will take place on June 22 against the Group D runner-up at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua.

    For those eager to catch the action, the T20 World Cup 2024, including the India vs United States clash, will be broadcasted on the Star Sports Network. English commentary will be available on Star Sports 1 HD and SD channels, while Hindi commentary can be found on Star Sports 3 HD and SD channels. Additionally, viewers can live stream the match on the Disney+ Hotstar app. The India vs United States T20I match on June 12 is scheduled to commence at 8 PM (India time).
