Here we will talk about the top three player battles, which we will watch during the USA vs IND game on Wednesday.
United States vs India Head to Head Record
The United States and India have never played a cricket match and this will be the first time when these two nations will face each other in this sport.
Top Three Player-battle in USA vs IND Clash in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024
1. Aaron Jones vs Jasprit Bumrah
Aaron Jones has been the best player for the United States in this tournament. He has taken his team to win in both games and has remained unbeaten till the very end. His unbeaten 90 against Canada was followed by 36 not out against Pakistan. So he will look to another match-winning knock against India. But can he do it against the world’s best bowler Jasprit Bumrah? The ace pacer has bagged two consecutive Players of the Match awards and is at the top of his form. He will be the biggest hurdle to cross for Jones and the other USA batters in this USA vs IND clash.
2. Rohit Sharma vs Saurabh Netravalkar
Rohit Sharma has looked good on this tough pitch. He scored a match-winning fifty in the first game against Ireland and had a start against Pakistan. Rohit will look to take down the inexperienced USA bowling unit and give a good start to the team. He can be very dangerous if he gets set, because of his ability to hit sixes. However, Saurabh Netravalkar is one guy who can trouble him. He is the hero of the last game against Pakistan, where he bowled a good spell and then the Super Over. He brings the ball in which has been a weakness of Rohit Sharma over the years.
3. Virat Kohli vs Nosthush Kenjige
Virat Kohli has looked clueless on this pitch in the first two games. He has registered two single-digit scores which is unlike the Virat Kohli, the world knows. But he will have that in his mind and will be looking to make up for it. He has an incredible record in the T20 World Cup and he is a best-suited batter for these conditions. But one area, where he has struggled in his career is against the left-arm spinner. Nosthush Kenjige had a pretty good against Pakistan and he will be a challenging spinner to face. He bowls wicket-to-wicket and grips the ball. So Virat needs to adjust well against him.
