USA vs Canada T20 World Cup 2024


United States of America (USA) registered a famous win against Canada in the first match  of ICC T20 World Cup 2024 on Sunday morning at Grand Prairie Stadium, Dallas Texas. 


Chasing a daunting 195-run target, the USA were off to the worst possible start, losing Steven Taylor in the first over itself.


Monank Patel and Andries Gous, then, put up a 42-run stand to bring the USA back into the game. However, the USA captain Monak went back to the pavilion in the seventh over. 

But Gous and Aaron Gones had different plans as they duo put up a counter-attacking 124-run stand for the third wicket before Nikhil Dutta got the wicket of Gous with USA needing 22 runs to win in 25 overs.
