USA hardly has a fully fledged American in the team by the looks

A lot of these associates have sub continent expats (and Carribbean expats in Canada and USA's case) driving the growth of the game, otherwise it wouldn't exist in these markets.

Please describe what a "fully fledged American" looks like.

Alternatively, try to guess which US player was born in Alabama.

So if USA can beat Ireland, they qualify for Super 8?

Youd think at least a few would have an American accent.

Can’t help but assume a few rupees were exchanged in the subcontinent last night over this. Would be elite if Pakistan now goes on to beat India.

Defending a boundary last ball the first 3 positions you'd go is Long mid off + Long mid on with someone at cow corner lol... absolutely shocking.

Cricket could really take off in America. It would be a huge frontier for the ICC:

A great win for the USA, it would have to be the best win in their cricket history.

People will accuse Pakistan of match fixing again but I don't think that was the case, it looked like they were genuinely trying to win the game but just got outplayed by a team that is better than most people expected and is capable of causing other upsets.

Hell of a fix to get a draw and lose in a super over

 

[Some Idiot]

USA beat Bangladesh 2-1 in a T20 series before the tournament, definitely the strongest squad they've ever assembled

 

[Westend]

Pakistan are always good a fix in World Cups.

yeah should we be surprised?

You may well be right - T20 is a bit of a leveller I recon. And if the better teams don't bring the right attitude it can get away from you quickly.

Pakistan not even trying to come back for 2 off the last ball of their regular innings when the ball went to long on was certainly something. Not like they could have used an extra run or anything.
