Co-hosts of the ninth iteration of the T20 World Cup, the United States of America will square off against Canada to get the marquee event up and started at the Grand Praire Stadium, Dallas on June 1, at 7:30 PM local time on June 1 (6 AM IST on June 2).

Given the venue for the inaugural match, the team winning the toss might opt to field first. This strategic choice, in turn, allows them to evaluate the prevailing conditions and gauge the pitch's behaviour, thereby obtaining valuable insights to inform their batting approach during the second innings. It represents the oldest rivalry in cricket, predating the Australia-England rivalry by 33 years. Their first encounter in the form of a Test match dates back to 1844, a fixture that saw Canada triumph over the US by 23 runs. 

Their most recent encounter was when Canada toured the States for a five-match T20I series in April, which saw the latter defeat the visitors comprehensively by a 4-0 margin. The latter triumphed in the first and fifth matches while chasing, and in the second and fourth matches while defending, with the third match being washed out due to adverse weather conditions.
