In Match No 3 of the ICC T20I World Cup 2026, India and the USA locked horns at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. After winning the Toss, the USA asked the defending champions to bat first, which turned out to be the right decision for them, as the Indian batting lineup crumbled badly throughout the innings. After the end of Powerplay IND were already four down, losing top-order batters like Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Tilak Varma, and Shivam Dube.
However, only the Indian skipper Suryakumar Yadav managed to score a half-century in the innings, and he even remained unbeaten, scoring 84 off 49 balls, taking the scoreboard to 161/9 in 20 overs. While fans were expecting a high-octane batting performance from India against the associate nation in the game, they ended up mocking the performance of the Men in Blue with the bat, with some even calling it 'a part of the India-US trade deal' which was finalised recently.
This Cricket match is a part of the trade deal.

68(26) vs HKG - IND won by 40 runs. Rohit got out, Kohli was as usual anchoring, KL being KL
2024 vs USA - Rescued from 25-3
Today - We all saw
This hardly feels like Team India out there. The intensity is missing, the execution is poor, while the USA is playing with the composure and confidence of top teams like Australia or England.#Ishan #Abhishek just don’t seem built for big-match pressure. #INDvsUSA

Meanwhile, Pakistan played the Netherlands in the tournament opener earlier today and managed to win by just three wickets in a last-over thriller. After USA, India will play Namibia on February 12 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi.
