Teams

USA XI: Steven Taylor, Shayan Jahangir, Andries Gous(w), Aaron Jones(c), Nitish Kumar, Corey Anderson, Harmeet Singh, Shadley van Schalkwyk, Jasdeep Singh, Saurabh Netravalkar, Ali Khan

Here's what Rohit Sharma said after opting to bowl: "We will bowl first. It has played better in the last two games, but you need to assess the conditions quickly and then let the game take over. It's all about constantly getting better and keeping the momentum going. It's important to do the right things. That was a great game to play, we didn't have enough runs on the board, but the bowlers came to the party and won the game for us. We're playing the same team."

Here's what Aaron Jones said after being inserted to bat first: "We would have bowled first as well, there's some help for the bowlers early. He's having a niggle and should be back quickly. It should be a good game and we're looking to play well. The camp is very positive, just looking to play some good cricket. Shayan Jahangir replaces Monank and Shadley is in for Nosthush." 

The India versus USA clash is an important one with respect to the points table. The two unbeaten sides will be hoping to have a 'Q' next to their name and have no hiccups along the way. While, Pakistan will be hoping for a few results to go their way in order for them to have a chance of qualification.
