In a historic turn of events, the USA cricket team recently secured a memorable victory against Pakistan in the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. This remarkable win has sent shockwaves through the cricketing world, showcasing the host nation’s growing prowess in the sport. Riding high on this significant achievement, the USA team is now gearing up to face India, aiming to continue their momentum and create another upset on June 12 at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium.
Harmeet Singh reveals USA gameplan against India
All-rounder Harmeet Singh has shed light on the USA’s strategic approach for their upcoming clash against India. He emphasized that the pressure will predominantly be on the Indian players, suggesting that the match might not be a high-scoring affair due to the nature of the pitch in New York.
Harmeet highlighted the importance of staying competitive throughout the 20 overs, while also being prepared for a high-scoring contest if the situation demands. He believed that the uneven pitch at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium will play a crucial role in the game.
“No expectations, the way the wicket is playing in New York it is uneven, I don’t see a very high-scoring game. When the game is not high-scoring we can make a comeback in the game. If we take a couple of wickets early and play well in the middle… as long as we are in the game till the last ball the pressure will always be on the bigger side who is playing against us. I think this will be the plan, staying in the game for 20 overs,” said Harmeet ahead of the vital game against India.

Confidence and momentum
Harmeet also pointed out the high confidence level within the USA team, stemming from their recent performances.
“We have been playing really well for the last few months. Our confidence level is very high. We knew Pakistan had recently lost two series and T20 is a format that works on momentum. When you lose, you keep on losing and you keep losing the key moments of the game,” he added.
Fans eagerly await India-USA clash

Following the USA’s stunning victory over Pakistan, supporters are keen to see if the host nation can pull off another upset against a formidable Indian side. The match promises to be a thrilling encounter, with fans from both nations eagerly anticipating the outcome.
