India beat USA by 29 runs in first T20
Indian bowlers produced a disciplined effort after an average batting display to subdue the United States of America by 29 runs, starting their ICC T20 World Cup campaign on a winning note on Saturday.
Pacers Mohammad Siraj (2/29), Arshdeep Singh (2/18) and left-arm spinner Axar Patel (2/24) were the pick of the bowlers. In reply, the USA were restricted to 132/8. Milind Kumar (34), Shubham Ranjane (37) and Suraj Krishnamurthi (37) fought well but were no match to the big-match experience of Indian bowlers.
Earlier, Skipper Suryakumar fought back with a counter-attacking half-century (84, 49 balls) to cover up the failure of his colleagues in the top and middle order.
