Unmukt Chand Scored Half Century: The USA team managed to perform well in its first season of the T20 World Cup. You can gauge the excellent performance of USA from the fact that this team was successful in reaching ‘Super 8’ in its very first attempt. Under the leadership of Monak Patel, USA defeated a big team like Pakistan in the league round. Cricket experts believe that if this team continues to perform well then it can soon emerge as a big team.
There are many promising players in the USA team. Perhaps this is the reason why the promising batsman Unmukt Chand, who had led Team India to the title in the Under-19 World Cup, did not get a place in the team. It seems that Chand has also now decided that he will settle for a place in the team due to his excellent skills.
