Third double header of this tournament and this is the second game of the day. Match 6 – Canada vs USA and it’s the match between two of the strongest teams in the tournament. They’re neighbours and they’ve played each other far too many times in T20 and ODI cricket, but it’s this contest that could decide the winner of this tournament as well.
Canada is unbeaten so far, winning one and losing one game due to rain. As for USA, they won their last game against Cayman but they began the series poorly, losing to Bermuda by 6 runs. Keep reading for our complete PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234”) fantasy preview of Match 6 – CAN vs USA…

Stats
- These two play each other for the first time in an official T20 international.
- Rizwan Cheema – 263 runs, 9 wickets in 18 career T20Is for Canada.
- Rodrigo Thomas so far this tournament – 5, 13*.
- Romesh Eranga – 24 wickets in his last 10 matches for Canada.
Canada
Ravinderpal Singh has had the most contrasting start to his T20I career so far, smashing 101 on his T20I debut and then bagging a duck in his second game. I’ll instead go in for someone who is known as a smasher in T20 cricket – Rodrigo Thomas. Don’t go by his scores so far but by the fact that he scored 291 runs in 7 games in the 2019 GT20 Canada against much better bowling attacks.
We’ve said before that this pitch is providing assistance to the medium pacers and both the top wicket-takers of this series so far are pacers – Romesh Eranga and Dillon Heyliger. Eranga has been quiet consistent over the years for his country and he’s a must, while Heyliger can also be added to your fantasy team. Hamza Tariq can be selected as your wicket-keeper as well.
USA
First pick of your PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234”) fantasy team should be Cameron Gannon as he’s come from Australia having played 2 season at the Big Bash as well. He picked 2/21 in 4 overs in the first game and we can expect him to continue his wicket-taking. Nisarg Patel can be good too, picking up 2 wickets in the 5 overs he has bowled so far this tournament.
Another absolute must-have in your T20 team is Steven Taylor, a hard-hitter of the T20 cricket ball and also a regular wicket taker. Taylor has scores of 0 and 17 this year which is way below what he’s capable of, but all-round abilities help his case. He picked up 2 wickets in the last game and he can be your captain or vice-captain for this CAN vs USA game.
