Cricket was so popular in the US once that even George Washington played a form of it but then it became a victim of the Civil War. The immigrants from South Asia and Caribbean didn't let it die, they stood guard for years and then the World Cup happened. Sandip G on cricket's storied life in the land of baseball.

USA might be minnows but they seem to have put together a team that can cause an upset or two in the course of this campaign. They do have a few exciting players to watch out as former Kiwi all-rounder, Corey Anderson makes his return to the big stage as well.

It is 10:20 AM on Sunday morning here and I still missed toss points.

Pitch and conditions: Despite the rain, the outfield looks unbelievable, says Natalie Germanos. Dimensions, from the River End - 73-metre boundary straight, 69 and 74 to the left and right respectively. Square boundaries: 61 metres off side and 70 leg side (for the right-hand batters). Fine boundaries are the shortest at 54 and 60 metres. Sunil Gavaskar says there's less grass here than there was in the MLC as there are fewer games. here will be carry for the pacers and the batters will like batting on it too.

Huge moment under the sun for both the teams. Cricket in USA hasn't been a regular thing but ICC has done its level best to market this amazing sport in the USA and finally we have the WC in 2024 happening in the States. Canada has had an in and out affair at the WCs. They were part of the 1979 WC but haven't quite taken major leaps in this sport.

Despite so much of rain, the outfield seems to be superb. This is going to be a keenly contested game. The opening ceremony about to get done.
