The growing popularity of cricket in the US provides context for the impending Twenty20 cricket match between the USA and India in New York. The New York Times and well-known figures such as Drake have brought attention to the growing popularity of the sport due to India’s engagement, which includes ownership of three of the six teams in the top T20 league in the United States.
Support for the USA’s cricket scene has been outstanding, with massive attendances at games such as the Bangladesh-South Africa match, thanks to a diversified diaspora. The hype has been created by close calls and upsets, and the USA team’s impressive performance—which included a victory over Pakistan—has heightened the hype. They are still unbeaten and have hope of making it to the Super Eights.
India, fresh from a run of wins, seems unfazed by star Shivam Dube’s recent form setbacks. They saw how important his spin-hitting skills would be for the next games in the West Indies. Despite a five-year break from international cricket, former sensation Corey Anderson offers expertise for the USA team.

India vs USA Head-to-Head Record:
There has never been a T20 international (T20I) cricket match between India and the USA. Though both nations field competitive cricket teams and compete in international competitions, their paths have not crossed in this specific format.
There have been many matchups in the T20I format, which is renowned for its fast-paced and thrilling competition, but a matchup between the USA, a growing cricket nation, and India, a cricketing powerhouse, is still unheard of. Cricket enthusiasts now look forward to a special meeting in the future.
