USA cricket team is gearing up to play its first-ever T20 World Cup on home soil later this year. The first match of this year’s T20 World Cup will be between neighbors USA and Canada. To ensure that the USA team is strong, the administrators have selected many players of Asian origin. Interestingly, there are a couple of former RCB cricketers in the USA squad as well.
The USA team is currently playing a T20I series against Canada to understand its opponent’s strength and weaknesses. Monank Patel, born in Gujarat, is the captain of the USA team right now. Former India U-19 players Harmeet Singh and Saurabh Netravalkar are also members of the American squad.
In this listicle now, we will look at the two former RCB players who are representing USA in the ongoing series against Canada.
