Bangladesh tour of USA (2024)

The USA will face off against Bangladesh for the final game of the T20I series. What a superb performance from the USA side. Totally outclassed the Bengal Tigers (performed like cats).

Will it be a whitewash though? Bangladesh fans will not like it if it happens.
Shocking by Bang boys , this 0-2 !
 
USA is yet to face India and Pakistan and they are already saying huge words. You have defeated Bangladesh brother, not Australia.
This is America my friend. Expect big talk, smack, complaining, boasting, and understand that none of us it is seriously at the end of the day.

You understand the rationale, but per Peter Della Penna you actually had fans show up today. Might have been nice to give them a show.
 
Bangladesh beat USA 10 wickets in the 3rd T20I. USA won the series 2-1.

USA 104/9 (20 Overs)
Bangladesh 108/0 (11.4 Overs)
 
Hard to win with four of your best players on the bench, but it made sense to give some other guys a shot.
Wasn't really banking on a USA win after the lineup changes, but the effort could have been better. Work singles and doubles. Be diligent about your batting. Keep things tight about your bowling and drag it out as long as you can. That's what I would have liked to see today, didn't really happen. Team did bat out the innings, which does count for a bit.
 
Bangladesh beat USA by 10 wickets in the third and final T20I

Bangladesh beat USA by 10 wickets in the third and final T20I to lose the series by a margin of 2-1 on Saturday. Earlier, USA scripted history by defeating Bangladesh in the second T20I to take an unassailable 2-0 lead. The winning side thus began its T20 World Cup preparations on a dominating note. USA, an associate cricketing nation, had also stunned Bangladesh, an ICC full member nation in the series opener.

No favourites in T20 World Cup: Stuart Law claims after USA's series win against Bangladesh

USA head coach Stuart Law rules out any favourites at the T20 World Cup after 2-1 series win against Bangladesh.
In his first assignment as the newly appointed head coach of USA, Stuart Law has already helped the side to their record first T20I series victory against a full-member team.

After the series win, Law claimed that USA had come with greater intent to win than Bangladesh in Texas.

"We had more desire and passion about the game in the first two matches," said Law after the final T20I.

Bangladesh were able to bounce back in the last match with a 10-wicket win after an inspiring bowling performance from Mustafizur Rahman as he snared his career-best T20I figures of 6/10.

As the series win was locked, USA rested key players – captain Monank Patel, opener Steven Taylor, all-rounder Harmeet Singh and fast bowler Ali Khan – to put their bench to the test with the T20 World Cup fast approaching.

"We wanted it a bit more than what they did. Today it was a different story. We may have relaxed a little bit. Bangladesh played pretty well. They will take this in their stride.

"It is great preparation. Playing games is so much better than hitting balls in the nets. Anything can happen in one-off games. That's what the World Cup is like. No one goes in as ultimate favourites."

"We were in a privileged position today with the series in our hands. It was nice to give opportunities to other players. We wanted to make sure everyone had a game before they go into the World Cup, which will be cut-throat. Every game will be like a final. We have had two very good performances in the two wins here," added Law.

The stand-in skipper Aaron Jones furthered Law’s point of no favourites as he asserted that USA beating Pakistan or India wouldn’t be termed an ‘upset’.

"We are a very good team. Obviously we showed that against Bangladesh, one of the best teams in the world. I wouldn't call it an upset if we beat Pakistan or India. I will just say that we played better cricket on the day. It is a game of cricket. The bigger teams can lose as well," said Jones.

The co-hosts of the tournament are placed in Group A with India, Pakistan, Ireland and Canada with their first match scheduled on 1 June against Canada in Dallas to inaugurate the T20 World Cup.
