Corey Anderson Left Out As USA Names Strong Team For ICC World Cup Qualifiers

The United States of America (USA) has named its squad for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 Qualifiers. What has been the highlight is that they have sidelined the team’s experienced Corey Anderson for the mega event.

Corey Anderson, who represented New Zealand in international cricket, moved to the US in 2020 and after playing domestic cricket there, became eligible to play for the national team earlier this year. He was expected to be there on the team, considering his experience and the type of player he is. But the selectors did not consider the one who was part of the Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and held the record for the fastest hundred in ODI cricket.

Coming to Team USA, the team will be captained by Monank Patel with Aaron Jones as his backup. The team is quite similar to what was on the field for the recent series against Namibia. Samit Patil, who played for India A and India U19, also made the cut in the squad, while the USA also picked left-arm fastball Abhishek Paradkar as the 15th member of their squad.

Here is the USA team for the World Cup qualifiers:

Monank Patel (c), Aaron Jones (vc), Steven Taylor, Gajanand Singh, Sai Teja Mukkamalla, Saurabh Netravalkar, Nisarg Patel, Kyle Phillip, Jasdeep Singh, Nosthush Kenjige, Usman Rafiq, Abhishek Paradkar, Ali Khan, Shayan Jahangir, Sushant Modani.
