Pitch Report:
Analysis
The USA has certainly been the surprise team of the tournament as they defeated Pakistan and Canada to nearly seal their spot in the Super 8s. The American batting has consistently managed to score runs with Aaron Jones, Steven Taylor, Nitish Kumar and Andries Gous performing consistently. On the bowling front, Saurabh Netravalkar and Ali Khan have been the top performers across every department.
On the other hand, Ireland has had a disappointing campaign with two losses in their first two games. After a few decent results in previous tournaments, the Irish came to the World Cup with a lot of expectations but haven’t lived up to those yet. Ireland’s batting has been a major disappointment with the bowling putting a few decent performances.
