Preview: India is leading the Group A points table after three victories. Next up, on June 15 at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground, Lauderhill, Florida, the team captained by Rohit Sharma will play Canada. Though it won’t be an easy assignment, a victory over India can increase their prospects of qualifying for the Super 8 of the 2017 T20 World Cup, if other calculations go their way. The Saad Bin Zafar-led team lost by seven wickets in their most recent match.
One of the tournament’s most evenly matched teams is India. The fact that India has performed well at the bat despite Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma’s inconsistent scores demonstrates their depth. Suryakumar Yadav performed admirably in the most recent match against the USA, while Rishabh Pant has been outstanding. The squad has Hardik Pandya as well, but Ravindra Jadeja needs to step up big time or else they would think about signing Kuldeep Yadav.
In their most recent game, Canada looked impressive against Pakistan. Despite hitting a half-century, opener Aaron Johnson didn’t receive enough help from other batsmen. The players will be motivated to upset India because they know they can do it.
T20 World Cup 2024, 33rd Match, IND vs CAN
Venue: Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground, Lauderhill, Florida
Date & Time: Saturday, June 15, 8:00 PM
Pitch Report: Florida’s surface is far superior to New York’s. However, because of the weather, it has been kept under shelter for a while and may behave slowly. Then spinners will work really well. It will be best to bowl first, and a score of more than 170 runs will be a decent middle score.
