Dhaliwal, Kirton take Canada to 194


USA vs Canada Live Score, Match 1: One of the oldest cricket rivalries will reignite at the T20 World Cup. The two neighbors who first faced each other 180 years ago (1844) will face off in the first match of the mega event. Coming from a 0-4 drubbing in April, Saad Bin Zafar’s Canada would love to turn the table on the home side, the United States of America, on June 2 at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas.

That’s it

So Canada has batted really well here. After the end of 20 overs, they have managed to score 194/5.

Out

How many run outs are we going to witness here. Bajwa is out for 11. CAN 173/5.

There you go. Now Kirton has a fifty in only 28 deliveries. This is looking like a great total for the Canadians. The score moves to 155/3 in 17 overs.

Out

And on his very first delivery, Corey Anderson has a wicket, as he removes dangerous Dhaliwal for 61 from 44. CAN 133/3 in 14.3 overs.

Big partnership

Dhaliwal and Kirton have upped the ante here and are dealing in boundaries. They have scored 62 in 36 only as CAN move to 128/2 in 14 overs.

50

First tournament fifty comes to Navneet Dhaliwal. He has played brilliantly here. CAN 101/2 in 11.5 overs.

Going Strong

Despite losing two wickets, Canada are decently placed at 85/2 after 10 overs. If they can get to 160, it would be a decent score for USA to chase.

Out

What are the Canadians doing here? They have another run-out as Pargat Singh is dismissed for 4. CAN 66/2 after 8 overs.

Out

And here is the first wicket of T20 World Cup 2024. Aaron Johnson is run out for 23 from 16. CAN 50/1 after 6 overs.

Canada strong

This opening pair is going strong at the moment as Jasdeep Singh comes on to bowl. Canada have reached 43/0 in 4.5 overs.

Johnson shines

Aaron Johnson is looking like a decent batsman. He gets three boundaries in Ali-Khan over. It is 34/0 in 3 overs.

Slow start

Saurabh Netravalkar starts from the other end. And Aaron has a boundary again in the over. Seven runs come for Canada. Score moves to 13/0 after 2 overs.

Four

And the first ball of the T20 World Cup is hit for a four by Aaron. But only six runs come from the over. CAN 6/0 after 1 over.
