India beat USA by 6 wickets<\/p>\n

(Scorecard)<\/a><\/p>\n

Runner-ups from the previous edition, India put the USA in to bat first after winning the toss and Henil Patel instantly validated that decision by delivering a fiery opening spell that broke the resistance of the USA top order. The right-arm pacer picked up three wickets in his opening burst.<\/p>\n

The Indians then tightened the screws on the USA middle order to pick up wickets at regular intervals as Deepesh Devendran, Ambarish RS, Khilan Patel and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi all nabbed a wicket each.<\/p>\n

Patel then returned to clean up the tail and bag the first five-wicket haul of the tournament to bowl USA out for just 107.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"India beat USA by 6 wickets (Scorecard) Runner-ups from the previous edition, India put the USA in to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":698560,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4101],"tags":[1406,145385,56086,210110,145395,210105,145407,145406,2192,210106,145405,210102,210114,145389,210104,30566,79,210109,210101,210108,16,210111,210113,210107,210112,210100,15,210103],"class_list":{"0":"post-698559","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cricket","8":"tag-cricket","9":"tag-cricket-headlines-today","10":"tag-cricket-live-score","11":"tag-cricket-match-live-score","12":"tag-cricket-scorecard-live","13":"tag-cricket-world-cup-2026","14":"tag-cricket-world-cup-live-score","15":"tag-cricket-world-cup-news","16":"tag-icc","17":"tag-icc-cricket-news","18":"tag-icc-cricket-updates","19":"tag-icc-under-19-world-cup","20":"tag-icc-youth-tournaments","21":"tag-international-cricket-news","22":"tag-junior-cricket","23":"tag-latest-cricket-news","24":"tag-sports","25":"tag-today-cricket-match-score","26":"tag-u19-cricket-world-cup-2026","27":"tag-u19-live-score-today","28":"tag-uk","29":"tag-under-19-cricket-fixtures","30":"tag-under-19-cricket-highlights","31":"tag-under-19-cricket-live-score","32":"tag-under-19-cricket-results","33":"tag-under-19-cricket-world-cup","34":"tag-united-kingdom","35":"tag-youth-cricket"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/698559","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=698559"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/698559\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/698560"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=698559"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=698559"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=698559"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
