The United States will take on Canada in the 5th T20I of the ongoing T20I Tri-Series. The match, scheduled to be held in Rotterdam, carries high stakes for both teams as they seek to secure a vital win in the series.
USA have endured a tough start, having played two matches without tasting victory. In their opening clash, they faced a disappointing loss against the Netherlands, followed by a rain-affected encounter against Canada, which produced no result. The American side is eager to register their first win to stay alive in the competition.
On the other hand, Canada have had a mixed run so far. They secured a solid victory in one of their games, while also suffering a loss as well. Like the USA, their match against the Americans was abandoned due to rain. With one win under their belt, Canada will be looking to boost their momentum and secure another victory to strengthen their position in the series.
