USA vs IND Match Preview
The United States of America beat Canada before causing the upset of the tournament so far against Pakistan. India recently beat Pakistan, too. There several in-form playing figureheads involved in this match. Let's help you understand who to select - and why.
Specialist batters and bowlers have their places in an XI, but it's important to get the balance right with a few all-rounders. Axar Patel and his left-arm spin and middle-order hitting could be a key asset for your Dream11 team selection.
Corey Anderson has played international cricket for two countries and also offers value with bat and ball. Hardik Pandya is fit enough to bowl again and is India's joint-leading wicket-taker at the 2024 T20 World Cup. Conditions in New York should suit him again.
The pitch in New York could play right into Jasprit Bumrah's hands again, too. He took three wickets at this venue against Pakistan recently. Bumrah is bowling with characteristic pace and accuracy. He could be the USA batters' toughest challenge yet.
Ravindra Jadeja is another world-class all-rounder you should get into your Dream11 team selection. He is often among our best Dream11 tips. Jadeja is capable of winning a contest, quickly, with bat or ball - if not both. Look forward to anothe big showing from him.
Aaron Jones nearly reached a T20I century against Canada and was instrumental with the bat for the USA againsdt Pakistan as well. Put him at the top of your batting order and wait on more big, quick runs from the in-form opener. Jones has been a real standout performer for his country this month.
Weather Report
No rain is forecast in New York on matchday. We should get in a full fixture. The team to win the toss will likely choose to bowl first. That is what has happened at this venue on four occasions during this tournament.
