Harmeet, Anderson Partnership Helps USA Stun Bangladesh In First T20I
Co-host United States of America caused a huge sensation ahead of the T20 World Cup, the Association Nation beating a full member Bangladesh by five wickets in the first T20I at the Prairie View Cricket Complex in Texas on Tuesday. Former Mumbai and India U-19 player Harmeet Singh scored an unbeaten 33 and shared a crucial partnership of 62 runs for the sixth wicket with former New Zealand all-rounder Corey Anderson (34 not out) as USA chased down the target after restricting Bangladesh to a modest total.
Electing to field first, the United States restricted Bangladesh to just 153/6 in 20 overs despite a half-century by middle-order batter Tawhid Hridoy, who scored 58 off 47 balls, hitting four boundaries and two sixes. Mahmudullah contributed a 22-ball 31 while Soumya Sarkar contributed 20 runs to the score.
