The 18th match of the ICC U19 T20 World Cup 2023 will take place between Bangladesh and the USA on January 18. Bangladesh comes just after a close 10-run victory over their Asian rivals Sri Lanka. They are now placed safely on the top of their group with two wins from as many games.
This is in stark contrast to their opponents, the United States, as they are languishing at the bottom of the table after losing both their matches. The Bangladesh team has been performing well as a unit. The batters are playing well and scoring consistently. The performance of their openers has been a sense of relief for the team. The bowling unit has also performed well and stepped up on various occasions, especially in the low-scoring first game.
The USA came into the tournament as an underdog and has never shown any impact in any of the matches. They were trashed badly in their previous encounter against Australia as they were all out for 64 and only two batters could register double-digit scores. Their main focus will be to register a consolidation victory in their last game whereas Bangladesh will look to strengthen their position on top.
