Two former Mumbai cricketers—all-rounder Harmeet Singh and pacer Saurabh Netravalkar—helped USA to register their maiden win over Bangladesh in the first T20I of the three-match series in Houston on Tuesday, to provide a fine tune-up for their T20 World Cup participation next month.
Thanks to off-spinner Steven Taylor (2-9) and Netravalkar’s (1-27) disciplined bowling, USA restricted visitors to 153-6 in the allotted 20 overs. Then, thanks to Harmeet’s attacking 13-ball 33 not out (2x4, 3x6) and Corey Anderson’s unbeaten 25-ball 34 (2x6), Monank Patel’s team snatched a five-wicket win with three balls to spare.
