Statistical Review: India Beat USA By 29 Runs In T20 World Cup
India began their ICC Men’s T20 World Cup campaign with a 29-run victory over the USA at the Wankhede Stadium on Saturday, but not without moments of genuine concern. Skipper Suryakumar Yadav’s majestic unbeaten 84 and a timely 3/29 from Mohammed Siraj, drafted in as a last-minute replacement, helped the defending champions avoid early embarrassment in their home tournament.
India entered the opener under pressure after losing all-rounder Harshit Rana to injury, and with pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah ruled out due to illness. The nerves showed as India, asked to bat first on a tricky surface offering movement and grip, slumped to 77/6. Shadley van Schalkwyk led the USA’s charge with incisive bowling, leaving India staring at a sub-par total.
