The USA Cricket team has announced its 15-member squad for the upcoming USA vs Canada T20 Series (or T20I Series), slated to begin on April 7th in Houston. The squad features exciting new faces like Corey Anderson USA Cricket and Harmeet Singh USA Cricket, who have received their maiden call-ups to the national team. However, the notable absence of Unmukt Chand T20 World Cup hopeful has left fans speculating about the selection criteria.
While Chand, known for his stint with India in the U19 World Cup 2012 and impressive record as the second-highest run-scorer in Major League Cricket (MiLC) history, misses out, the squad welcomes some promising talents. Harmeet Singh, who previously played for Rajasthan in IPL 2013 and represented India U19, has earned his first call-up for the USA. Another newcomer is former RCB batter Milind Kumar, who impressed selectors with his performances in the MiLC, scoring a whopping 1100 runs in 35 innings.
The inclusion of Corey Anderson, a seasoned campaigner with international experience for New Zealand, adds a new dimension to the USA squad. After a six-year hiatus from competitive cricket, Anderson brings back his explosive batting and handy bowling skills. This upcoming T20 Cricket Schedule clash between Canada and USA promises to be an exciting affair with these fresh faces in the USA squad. Unmukt Chand’s absence, however, has sparked discussions about the team’s strategy for the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
