Points Table
2nd Match- USA vs Canada (Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd, Utrecht)
Current T20I Form Canada:
Canada have lost their first match of the Tri Series against Netherlands and started off the competition on a losing note.
The top run scorer for Canada in the Netherlands T20I Tri-Series is Nicholas Kirton with 69 runs to his name.
The top wicket taker for Canada in the Netherlands T20I Tri-Series is Harsh Thaker with 2 scalps under his belt
In their previous match against Netherlands, Canada batted first and they posted a total of 152 for 5 in 20 overs. The start was terrible as Canada were 3 wickets down for 34 runs in the 5th over. This is when Nicholas Kirton arrived at the crease. He took the responsibility of reviving the innings. Kirton played patiently in the early part of his innings but then unleashed his hitting prowess, scoring 69 important runs for his team. Ravinderpal Singh also flexed his muscles and smashed 39 runs off just 18 balls to help Canada get to a competitive total of 152 in 20 overs of play.
During the chase, Michael Lewitt and Max O’Dowd started off very well, stitching a partnership of 60 runs for the first wicket.

Michael Lewitt scored 62 runs while Vikramjit Singh smashed 52 runs in just 21 balls to seal the deal in favor of Netherlands. On the back of their batting brilliance, Netherlands easily chased the total down in the 17th over with 5 wickets in hand.
Current T20I Form USA:
USA are currently placed at the 18th position on ICC Men’s T20 Team Rankings with a rating of 169.
USA are in an ordinary form lately. They managed to win only 2 out of their last 4 ICC CWC League 2 games. However, in T20I format, they have a better record. USA surprised the cricket community by their performance in the recently concluded ICC Men’s T20 World Cup. They should look forward to similar feats in the Netherlands T20I Tri-Series.
Players to look out for:
1. Steven Taylor – After a great ICC Men’s T20 World Cup outing, Taylor will be looking to continue his good form in the Tri Series as well. Taylor will play an important role for USA at the top of the order.
2. Nosthush Kenjige – He bowls with utmost accuracy and guile. Kenjige can turn the match on its head in a matter of few balls. He is expected to be USA’s best bowler in the Netherlands T20I Tri-Series.
