Why are Monank Patel and Nosthush Kenjige not playing T20 World Cup 2024 Match 25 between USA vs India?
India fielded an unchanged playing XI for their third game.
United States of America took on India in Match 25 of the T20 World Cup 2024 at the Nassau County Stadium in New York on June 12. India won the toss and opted to bowl first. India fielded an unchanged playing XI for their third game while USA dealt a blow as their captain Monank Patel missed out and Shayan Jahangir replaced him in the crucial match.
Aaron Jones, who is the stand-in captain for USA in the game, revealed that Patel missed due to a niggle. The hosts made another significant change to their squad as they brought in Shadley van Schalkwyk at the expense of Nosthush Kenjige. Kenjige was bit expensive in the last game as he conceded 30 runs in a low-scoring affair. But USA have decided to overlook that he picked three crucial wickets.
“We will bowl first. It has played better in the last two games, but you need to assess the conditions quickly and then let the game take over. It's all about constantly getting better and keeping the momentum going. It's important to do the right things. That was a great game to play, we didn't have enough runs on the board, but the bowlers came to the party and won the game for us. We're playing the same team,” said Rohit at the toss.
“We would have bowled first as well, there's some help for the bowlers early. He's having a niggle and should be back quickly. It should be a good game and we're looking to play well. The camp is very positive, just looking to play some good cricket. Shayan Jahangir replaces Monank and Shadley is in for Nosthush,” said Jones at the toss.
