USA are entering the tournament at the back of two top-class performances i.e. their win over Canada, 4-0, and before that their historic 2-1 series victory against Bangladesh. They would hope that there good form continues and helps them hammer their opposition once again.
The biggest strength of the co-hosts is their top-order. Interestingly, openers Steven Taylor and Monank Patel have had six 50-plus stands in the 12 T20I innings, making them a tough duo to face.
On the other hand, Saad Bin Zafar led-Canada are jolted after their recent series defeat to USA. Hence, going forward they would look to set things right and turn the winning momentum to their favour.
Canada's strongest card is undeniably their bowlers. Good spin department, consisting of Nikhil Dutta and the captain himself is good enough for the opposition to have a tough time. Moreover, they also have a strong pace attack consisting of Dillon Heyliger, Jeremy Gordon and Kaleem Sana.
