America scored 110 runs for 8 wickets
Earlier, thanks to the excellent performance of the bowlers led by left-arm fast bowler Arshdeep Singh (9/4), India restricted the visiting team to 110 runs for 8 wickets. This performance of Arshdeep is the best bowling performance by an Indian in the T20 World Cup. Earlier this record was in the name of Ravichandran Ashwin, who took four wickets for 11 runs against Australia in Mirpur in 2014. Arshdeep got a good support from Hardik Pandya who took two wickets for 14 runs in four overs. Axar Patel got a success.
Nitish Kumar played an innings of 27 runs
For USA, Nitish Kumar contributed 27 runs in 23 balls while opener Steven Taylor contributed 24 runs in 30 balls. Batting on this pitch has proved to be very difficult so far, so this target can be challenging for India as well. The team that wins this match will secure its place in the Super Eight. Arshdeep got Shayan Jahangir (0) out LBW on the first ball of the opening over and then got Andreas Gaus (2 runs) out on the last ball to give India a great start.
Jones took over the captaincy in place of injured Monak Patel
Aaron Jones (11), who was leading the team in place of injured captain Monak Patel, showed aggressive attitude by hitting a six on Mohammad Siraj's bouncer, but Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik bowled economical overs due to which America could score only 18 runs for two wickets in the power play. Jones got caught by Siraj on Hardik's ball while trying to play another big shot. Taylor, who was playing cautiously till now, hit a six against Shivam Dubey who came to bowl in the ninth over. He was bowled after hitting the second six of his innings against Akshar in the 12th over.
America completed 100 runs in the 18th over
Nitish then hit a brilliant six and a four in the straight over against Hardik while Corey Anderson (15), who has played for New Zealand, sent Akshar's ball into the crowd. After giving 32 runs in the last three overs, Indian captain Rohit Sharma handed the ball to Arshdeep and this bowler sent aggressive batting Nitish to the pavilion. Siraj took a brilliant catch near the boundary. Anderson hit a four against Bumrah while Harmeet Singh (10) increased the run rate by hitting a six. Hardik gave a double blow to America by dismissing Anderson in the 17th over while Arshdeep dismissed Harmeet in the 18th over. Both of them were caught by Rishabh Pant behind the wicket. America's century of runs was completed in the same over with a run from Shadley van Schalkwyk (11 not out). He contributed to taking the score to 110 runs by hitting a four against Siraj in the last over.
