Former New Zealand Cricketer Corey Anderson will play for the USA [x.com]
Former New Zealand cricket star Corey Anderson is set to don the jersey of the USA Cricket team, bringing a wealth of experience to their ranks.
Anderson, known for his dynamic all-round abilities, will make his comeback to international cricket after five years, aiming to make a mark in the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024.
The 33-year-old left-handed batter and fast seam bowler has an impressive international record, having represented New Zealand in 13 Tests, 49 ODIs, and 31 T20Is. Anderson also boasts a rich IPL career, having played 30 matches in the prestigious tournament.
Anderson’s inclusion in the USA squad signals a new era for American cricket, with the team eyeing success in the forthcoming T20 World Cup 2024. His arrival adds depth and firepower to the squad, offering valuable experience and skill on both fronts of the game.
USA Cricket’s revamped squad for the five-match T20I series against Canada also features other notable inclusions, including former India U-19 captain Unmukt Chand and domestic cricket standout Harmeet Singh. Monank Patel will lead the side, with Aaron Jones serving as his deputy.
The selection of Anderson and other seasoned campaigners underscores USA Cricket’s ambition to compete at the highest level of international cricket.
However, interestingly, Unmukt Chand has been excluded from the USA team. The former India Under-19 captain, won the cup for his nation in 2012, but he left for USA due to lack of opportunities in India. Chand has had three prolific seasons in the MLC, and yet he was ignored by the USA selectors.
