Having already felled Pakistan last week, United States of America (USA) will attempt another giant-slaying act on Wednesday. Up against them are 2007 champions India, in an unlikely top-of-the-table clash in Group ‘A’ of the T20 World Cup at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium.

Successive wins for USA

Successive wins over Canada and Pakistan have put the co-hosts on the brink of a berth in the Super Eights, the same boat in which India find themselves after powering past Ireland and then edging Pakistan in a thriller. Wednesday’s winners will punch a ticket to the Caribbean, which will host the Super Eights and the knockouts, though the vanquished will have one more opportunity to do so.
