Corey Anderson in the mix

Corey Anderson, a member of the New Zealand team that finished as the runners up in the 2015 World Cup, recently guided the USA to a commanding victory over Canada. The United States’ chances of performing well in the T20 World Cup are improved by Corey’s inclusion. The team has been placed in Group A alongside Pakistan, India, Ireland and Canada.

Ali Khan fit to feature

Fast bowler Ali Khan missed the Canada series due to a hamstring injury. He has been cleared to compete in the tournament, which is a positive sign for the team’s bowling resources.
