The three-match series is currently poised at an intriguing phase with the USA taking a 1-0 lead with their five-wicket win in the first match.
Preview
The United States (USA) and Bangladesh (BAN) are set to clash in the second T20I of the 2024 Bangladesh tour of the USA. The three-match series is currently poised at an intriguing phase, with the USA taking a 1-0 lead with their five-wicket win in the first match.
The hosts scripted history with a five-wicket win, recording their first win in a T20I against a Test-playing nation. Batting first, Bangladesh could post only a modest total of 153 runs despite Towhid Hridoy scoring a half-century. A collective effort by the USA batters saw them successfully hit the target with three balls to spare.
An exciting match is expected at the Prairie View Cricket Complex on Thursday, May 23, as it is a must-win game for the visitors. One more win would seal the series for the USA, something Najmul Hossain Shanto and Co. can’t afford with the 2024 T20 World Cup around the corner.
