They are in Super 8 now. It&#8217;s amazing. We all congratulate them on their success. It&#8217;s tremendous and we cheer them on,&#8221; White House National Security Communications Adviser John Kirby said in the video.<br \/><span class=\"strong\">WATCH:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The USA, making their debut in the ICC T20 World Cup tournament, began their campaign impressively by defeating Canada by 7 wickets at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas.<br \/>Their next challenge came against the 2009 champions Pakistan, where the co-hosts faced a formidable task. Despite being underdogs, the USA came out firing on all cylinders to shock Babar Azam&#8217;s team at a packed Grand Prairie Stadium.<br \/>The USA bowlers restricted Pakistan to 159 for 7, then levelled that score to force a Super Over. Pakistan&#8217;s star pacer Mohammad Amir bowled the Super Over, conceding 18 runs in an eight-ball over to the USA.<\/p>\n<p>In reply, the USA restricted Pakistan to 13\/1, clinching the thrilling Super Over and adding two valuable points to their tally.<br \/>Following the victory, USA captain Monank Patel elaborated on how his team successfully contained the Green Shirts.<br \/>&#8220;Winning the toss and the way we bowled in the first 6 overs, we took wickets and kept them quiet. We knew they will take chances after their partnership. We knew we were in the game with 160 to chase, just needed a partnership. Playing in a World Cup, you don\u2019t get a chance to do it every year. We were fully committed to every single ball,&#8221; the USA skipper had said. <\/p>\n<p>The USA progressed to the Super 8s of the tournament despite their final Group match against Ireland being washed out due to rain at Broward County Stadium in Florida.<br \/>Alongside India, who topped Group A with 7 points from 4 matches, the USA secured their place in the Super 8s by finishing second in the group with 5 points from 4 matches.<\/div>\n<p><script>!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isFBCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        if (f.fbq) return;\n        n = f.fbq = function() {\n          n.callMethod ? n.callMethod(...arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n        };\n        if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n        n.push = n;\n        n.loaded = !0;\n        n.version = '2.0';\n        n.queue = [];\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js', n, t, s);\n      fbq('init', '593671331875494');\n      fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    };\n    function loadGtagEvents(isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      var id = document.getElementById('toi-plus-google-campaign');\n      if (id) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        t.id = 'toi-plus-google-campaign';\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/www.googletagmanager.com\/gtag\/js?id=AW-877820074', n, t, s);\n    };\n    function loadSurvicateJs(allowedSurvicateSections = []){\n      const section =  window.location.pathname.split('\/')[1]\n      const isHomePageAllowed = window.location.pathname === '\/' && allowedSurvicateSections.includes('homepage')\n      if(allowedSurvicateSections.includes(section) || isHomePageAllowed){\n        (function(w) {\n          var s = document.createElement('script');\n          s.src=\"https:\/\/survey.survicate.com\/workspaces\/0be6ae9845d14a7c8ff08a7a00bd9b21\/web_surveys.js\";\n          s.async = true;\n          var e = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];\n          e.parentNode.insertBefore(s, e);\n        })(window);\n      }\n    }\n    window.TimesApps = window.TimesApps || {};\n    var TimesApps = window.TimesApps;\n    TimesApps.toiPlusEvents = function(config) {\n      var isConfigAvailable = \"toiplus_site_settings\" in f && \"isFBCampaignActive\" in f.toiplus_site_settings && \"isGoogleCampaignActive\" in f.toiplus_site_settings;\n      var isPrimeUser = window.isPrime;\n      if (isConfigAvailable && !isPrimeUser) {\n        loadGtagEvents(f.toiplus_site_settings.isGoogleCampaignActive);\n        loadFBEvents(f.toiplus_site_settings.isFBCampaignActive);\n        loadSurvicateJs(f.toiplus_site_settings.allowedSurvicateSections);\n      } else {\n        var JarvisUrl=\"https:\/\/jarvis.indiatimes.com\/v1\/feeds\/toi_plus\/site_settings\/643526e21443833f0c454615?db_env=published\";\n        window.getFromClient(JarvisUrl, function(config){\n          if (config) {\n            loadGtagEvents(config?.isGoogleCampaignActive);\n            loadFBEvents(config?.isFBCampaignActive);\n            loadSurvicateJs(config?.allowedSurvicateSections);\n          }\n        })\n      }\n    };\n  })(\n    window,\n    document,\n    'script',\n  );<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/icc-mens-t20-world-cup\/white-house-sends-a-special-message-to-the-us-cricket-team-ahead-of-super-8s-in-t20-world-cup-watch\/articleshow\/111104502.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW DELHI: When the United States cricket team entered the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, few anticipated their historic journey to the Super 8s.
