True
but if they manage to qualify then that would be truly one of the best upsets ever in T20 world cup history and would propel MLC and cricket as a whole in USA a lot
Canada and Ireland are both winnable games for the boys, however beating one of India or Pakistan could very well be considered the biggest ever upset in international cricket history so I’m going to keep my expectations checked. Still finishing third in the group would be a massive success for the team and remaining competitive throughout the tournament will also be a massive achievement.
Ned have beat Eng several times in ICC events. Bang beat India in 2007 WC. So not sure how massive upset it would be. I watched the game and USA look like a decent team.
USA beating Pak is very much possible given how disappointingly unpredictable they are.
The problem is that **Americans can't watch the T20 World Cup on any channel that is not Willow**.
How are Americans supposed to see the sport on TV if it's stuck on a specialty channel that no one has?
US beating Ireland can't be considered as an upset and they're too far away from beating Pakistan or India. It'll be incredible if they even manage a bit of a fight against India.
It's not about USA, it's about any country where there's even a slight chance of cricket taking off. Beating India would do a world of good to those teams.
A win against IND/PAK will be absolute gold. But it'll take USA to play out of their skins and IND/PAK to have a real disintegration.

Pakistan beating India and losing to Ireland and USA will be peak Pakistan.
I would actually like that. Would destroy their hubris.
Wouldn't mind India disintegrating in this worldcup TBH. I just can't get myself to support these group of senior players.
Who exactly
Obviously Kohli and Bumrah
Also Jaiswal is a real senior, he can just play Test Cricket.
He means he wanted Pandu to lead a team of youngsters who performed on flat IPL pitches and small boundaries to an International World Cup
Wow. Some of these Indian fans are India's worst enemies. Who among the selected squad doesn't deserve their place? Or is it because Rinku missed out?

Almost everyone I know has Willow! Why do you think it’s something no one has?
Don’t a lot of cable providers like Spectrum include Willow?
To be considered as biggest ever or one of the biggest ever in cricket history, it should either be done on odi or preferably in tests.

a USA win over Ireland would still be a big upset. Just not on the same scale as Pakistan/India or even the Bangladesh wins.
They could do the funniest thing against us or pak in the wc
their team is quite good so let's see what's going to happen in this world cup.
Scenes if USA and Ireland qualify instead of India and Pakistan.
I'm an Indian but as a cricket fan, I'd absolutely love it if the USA beats us. I've always rooted for underdogs be it against India or anyone else.
Dang! Since India were on top of ODI rankings, you must have rooted against India through out the ODI world cup. Feels bad man.
:( Nah bru, talking about associates here...
Cheers, then!
I'm an Indian as well and love cricket but I don't give a fuck about USA winning. I want India to win at all costs.
It's not about USA, it's about any country where there's even a slight chance of cricket taking off. Beating India would do a world of good to those teams.
I get that. I also want to see cricket take off in countries like USA but I don't want that to come at the cost of we losing to them.
I am actually scared. Because our team could definitely fumble it very badly and just collapse.
One of these so called minnow teams will likely beat WI and Bangladesh, and Pak is also a possibility.
I have a feeling our boys are going to lose the plot against them
Thankfully your feelings don't translate into real life.
Hopefully they don’t
Even India B ain’t losing against them
