Fantasy tips for Match 12 between United States of America and Pakistan.
The United States of America (USA) and Pakistan (PAK) will be up against each other in match no.12 of the T20 World Cup 2026. Check out our PAK vs USA Dream11 Prediction for this Group A game, to be played at Sinhalese Sports Club Ground, Colombo.
Memories of the previous edition will be fresh from the last time these two teams faced off. The USA won that clash in a super over and Pakistan will be looking to avenge that.
Pakistan began their campaign with a nervy win over Netherlands by three wickets. Chasing 148, they had found themselves in a tricky spot with 114-7 in 16.1 overs. But Faheem Ashraf smashed 29 not out in 11 balls to get them over the line.
The USA pushed India to the limits in their first game but eventually lost by 29 runs. Their bowlers had reduced the hosts to 77 for 6 but couldn’t get past Suryakumar Yadav. Chasing 162, they lost three wickets in the powerplay. Shubham Ranjane later hit 37 off 22 but they were way behind the game.
Pakistan: Sahibzada Farhan, Saim Ayub, Salman Ali Agha (c), Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman, Usman Khan (WK), Mohammad Nawaz, Shadab Khan, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Naseem Shah, Abrar Ahmed.
United States of America: Andries Gous (wk), Saiteja Mukkamalla, Monank Patel (c), Milind Kumar, Sanjay Krishnamurthi, Shubham Ranjane, Harmeet Singh, Mohammad Mohsin, Shadley van Schalkwyk, Ali Khan, Saurabh Netravalkar.
Sinhalese Sports Club Ground is a venue where the pitches offer good help for the spinners. This help in this tournament, however, isn’t as extravagant as it is in bilateral series.
The weather is expected to be partly cloudy but with only a 1% chance of precipitation. Expect the temperature to be around 25 degrees Celsius.
Monank Patel (USA)
