New Delhi. India face a team in the T20 World Cup on Wednesday, most of whose players once dreamed of playing for the Indian team. Some also played in Ranji Trophy and IPL, but not getting a place in the national team changed their mindset. These players range from Harmeet Singh to Saurabh Netrawalkar. 8 players including Harmeet, Saurabh are now part of the American team, against which India will play their next match.
The similarity between the Indian and American teams is not just the birth of the players. The performances of both of them in the T20 World Cup have been similar so far. Both India and USA are in Group A. Both India and USA have won two matches each so far. Both are unbeaten in the group and both have beaten Pakistan.
A team playing in the T20 World Cup that is penalized for speaking Punjabi has been changed.
There are 8 players of Indian origin in the American cricket team. Including Saurabh Netrawalkar, Harmeet Singh, Monank Patel, Nitish Kumar, Milind Kumar, Nisarg Patel, Jasdeep Singh (JC). Due to this, the American team is also being called ‘India B’. Although the pitching behavior has narrowed the gap between the teams, it will not be easy for the US to overcome the Indian team. The US team has two players of Pakistani origin and one each from the West Indies, New Zealand, South Africa and the Netherlands.
