The United States national cricket team vs India national cricket team stats reflect a young international rivalry that has already produced two memorable T20 World Cup matches. India won both meetings, but the contests showed how competitive USA could be against one of the leading teams in world cricket.
The first meeting came at the 2024 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in New York, where USA posted 110/8 before India reached 111/3 with 10 balls remaining. Two years later, the teams met again in Mumbai at the 2026 T20 World Cup, with India making 161/9 and then restricting USA to 132/8 for a 29-run victory.
With only two men’s T20I meetings between the sides through September 2026, the head-to-head sample is still small. However, the individual numbers already provide several useful records, particularly for Suryakumar Yadav and Arshdeep Singh.
United States Vs India Head-to-Head Stats
India currently lead the men’s T20I head-to-head 2-0.
| Format | Matches | India Wins | USA Wins | Ties | No Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| T20Is | 2 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Tests | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| ODIs | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Overall | 2 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
The two teams have met only in T20 World Cup competition so far. Their first encounter was in the 2024 tournament, while the second came in the opening round of the 2026 edition. The ICC’s 2026 schedule placed India and USA together in Group A, with their match played at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
India Vs USA Match Results
| Date | Tournament | Venue | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| June 12, 2024 | T20 World Cup | Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, New York | India won by 7 wickets |
| February 7, 2026 | T20 World Cup | Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai | India won by 29 runs |
The results show two very different types of victories. In 2024, India had to chase a modest target after USA made life difficult with the ball. In 2026, India recovered from a difficult batting start to set a defendable total and then controlled the chase.
USA Vs India 2024 Match Stats
The first men’s international meeting between USA and India took place on June 12, 2024, at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.
USA batted first and scored 110/8 from their 20 overs. India then reached 111/3 in 18.2 overs to win by seven wickets.
USA Batting In 2024
| USA Batter | Runs |
|---|---|
| Nitish Kumar | 27 |
| Steven Taylor | 24 |
| Corey Anderson | 15 |
| Aaron Jones | 11 |
| Shadley van Schalkwyk | 11 |
| Harmeet Singh | 10 |
| Others | 12 |
| Total | 110/8 |
USA’s total was built through contributions rather than one major innings. Nitish Kumar top-scored with 27, while Steven Taylor made 24.
The difficult New York pitch made stroke-making challenging, and USA’s 110 proved competitive because India also struggled during the early part of the chase. The ICC reported that six USA batters reached double figures, highlighting how the total was constructed through several small partnerships.
India’s Bowling Figures
| India Bowler | Overs | Runs | Wickets |
|---|---|---|---|
| Arshdeep Singh | 4 | 9 | 4 |
| Hardik Pandya | 4 | 14 | 2 |
| Axar Patel | 3 | 25 | 1 |
| Other bowlers | 9 | 62 | 1 |
| Total | 20 | 110 | 8 |
Arshdeep Singh produced the standout bowling performance, taking 4/9 in four overs. It remains his best bowling performance against USA and one of the defining statistical performances in this rivalry.
India’s Successful Chase
India’s chase began badly. Virat Kohli was dismissed for a golden duck and Rohit Sharma made only three runs.
USA therefore had India at 10/2, creating genuine pressure on the eventual winner.
Rishabh Pant scored 18 before being dismissed, but Suryakumar Yadav and Shivam Dube stabilized the innings. Suryakumar finished unbeaten on 50, while Dube remained not out on 31 as India completed the chase with 10 balls to spare.
| India Batter | Runs |
|---|---|
| Suryakumar Yadav | 50* |
| Shivam Dube | 31* |
| Rishabh Pant | 18 |
| Rohit Sharma | 3 |
| Virat Kohli | 0 |
| Total | 111/3 |
Saurabh Netravalkar was USA’s most successful bowler, finishing with 2/18. He removed both Kohli and Rohit early and put USA in a strong position before India’s middle order recovered.
USA Vs India 2026 Match Stats
The second meeting took place on February 7, 2026, at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai during the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup.
India won by 29 runs, scoring 161/9 before USA finished on 132/8. The ICC reported that India had been reduced to 77/6, making Suryakumar Yadav’s unbeaten 84 particularly important.
India’s Batting Performance
| India Statistic | Figure |
|---|---|
| Total | 161/9 |
| Suryakumar Yadav | 84* |
| Suryakumar’s balls faced | 49 |
| Suryakumar’s fours | 10 |
| Suryakumar’s sixes | 4 |
| India wickets lost | 9 |
Suryakumar’s 84 came from only 49 deliveries and contained 10 fours and four sixes.
That innings was particularly significant because India had lost six wickets for 77 runs. Rather than simply adding runs at the end of an already strong innings, Suryakumar had to rebuild the total under pressure.
His contribution effectively changed the match from a potentially modest Indian score into a total of 161.
USA Bowling In 2026
USA’s bowlers initially put India under serious pressure. Shadley van Schalkwyk led the attack as USA reduced India to 77/6.
The collapse meant that the USA bowling unit had already removed several of India’s major batting options before Suryakumar’s counterattack.
This is one of the clearest statistical contrasts between the two meetings: in 2024, USA’s pressure came primarily during India’s chase, while in 2026 the USA attack created pressure while India were setting the target.
USA Batting In 2026
USA responded with 132/8, falling 29 runs short.
| Team | Score | Result |
|---|---|---|
| India | 161/9 | Won |
| USA | 132/8 | Lost by 29 runs |
India’s bowlers prevented USA from converting its promising position into a successful chase. Mohammed Siraj was India’s leading wicket-taker with 3 wickets, while Arshdeep Singh and Axar Patel took two each.
Overall India Vs USA Batting Stats
With only two matches, the aggregate figures are still relatively small.
| Statistic | India | USA |
|---|---|---|
| Matches | 2 | 2 |
| Total team runs | 272 | 242 |
| Highest team score | 161/9 | 132/8 |
| Wins | 2 | 0 |
| Losses | 0 | 2 |
India have scored 272 runs across the two completed matches, compared with USA’s 242.
The difference of 30 aggregate runs is relatively narrow considering India have won both games. It also demonstrates that USA have generally been competitive across the two encounters.
Highest Team Scores In The Rivalry
| Team | Highest Score | Match |
|---|---|---|
| India | 161/9 | 2026 |
| USA | 132/8 | 2026 |
India’s highest score against USA is 161/9, recorded in Mumbai in 2026.
USA’s highest total is 132/8, also from the 2026 meeting.
Interestingly, the 2024 match produced lower totals from both teams because of the challenging New York surface. USA made 110/8 and India chased 111/3.
Highest Individual Scores
Suryakumar Yadav owns the highest individual score in the rivalry.
| Player | Team | Highest Score |
|---|---|---|
| Suryakumar Yadav | India | 84* |
| Suryakumar Yadav | India | 50* |
| Shivam Dube | India | 31* |
| Nitish Kumar | USA | 27 |
| Steven Taylor | USA | 24 |
| Rishabh Pant | India | 18 |
Suryakumar’s two innings have produced 134 runs, making him comfortably the leading run-scorer in this head-to-head.
His 84* in 2026 is also the only innings by either side to pass 50 in the two-match rivalry.
Suryakumar Yadav Vs USA Stats
Suryakumar has been the most productive batter in India-USA matches.
| Statistic | Suryakumar Yadav |
|---|---|
| Matches | 2 |
| Innings | 2 |
| Runs | 134 |
| Highest score | 84* |
| 50+ scores | 2 |
| Sixes in 2026 | 4 |
| Fours in 2026 | 10 |
His first innings against USA was an unbeaten 50 in 2024. Two years later, he produced an unbeaten 84.
That means he has passed fifty in both meetings, making him the only batter from either team to achieve that feat.
Arshdeep Singh Vs USA Stats
Arshdeep Singh has also made a major impact in the rivalry.
His defining performance came in 2024 when he took 4/9. The spell included a wicket with the first ball of the match and helped India restrict USA to 110/8.
| Statistic | Arshdeep Singh |
|---|---|
| Best bowling | 4/9 |
| Match | 2024 T20 World Cup |
| Overs | 4 |
| Runs conceded | 9 |
| Wickets | 4 |
The 4/9 spell was also Arshdeep’s career-best bowling performance at the time and earned him the Player of the Match award.
India’s Bowling Records Against USA
India’s bowling performances have been central to both victories.
| India Bowler | Notable Performance |
|---|---|
| Arshdeep Singh | 4/9 in 2024 |
| Hardik Pandya | 2/14 in 2024 |
| Mohammed Siraj | 3 wickets in 2026 |
| Axar Patel | 2 wickets in 2026 |
The numbers show two different bowling approaches.
In 2024, Arshdeep and Hardik did most of the damage with pace, restricting USA to 110/8. In 2026, Siraj led India’s attack with three wickets while Arshdeep and Axar added two each.
USA Bowling Records Against India
Saurabh Netravalkar produced USA’s most memorable spell against India.
| USA Bowler | Best Known Figures |
|---|---|
| Saurabh Netravalkar | 2/18 |
| Shadley van Schalkwyk | Key role in 2026 collapse |
Netravalkar’s 2024 performance was particularly notable because he dismissed two of India’s most experienced opening batters.
He removed Virat Kohli for a golden duck and Rohit Sharma for three runs, leaving India at 10/2 while chasing 111.
India Vs USA Head-to-Head In T20 World Cup
Every men’s international meeting between the teams so far has occurred at the T20 World Cup.
| Year | Winner | Margin | Venue |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | India | 7 wickets | New York |
| 2026 | India | 29 runs | Mumbai |
This gives India a 100% winning record in the rivalry through the end of the 2026 tournament.
USA’s performances, however, have been competitive. In 2024 they reduced India to 10/2 and threatened an upset before Suryakumar and Dube completed the chase. In 2026 they reduced India to 77/6 before Suryakumar rescued the innings.
Biggest Win In India Vs USA Matches
India’s biggest win by runs came in 2026, when they defeated USA by 29 runs.
Their 2024 victory was measured by wickets, with India winning by seven wickets.
| Category | Record |
|---|---|
| Biggest India win by runs | 29 runs |
| Biggest India win by wickets | 7 wickets |
| Biggest USA win | None |
| Highest India total | 161/9 |
| Highest USA total | 132/8 |
| Highest individual score | Suryakumar Yadav, 84* |
| Best bowling | Arshdeep Singh, 4/9 |
Because USA have not yet defeated India, there is no USA victory record in this head-to-head.
Key Statistical Trends
Several patterns stand out from the two matches.
India have won both matches
India lead the head-to-head 2-0. Both victories came in World Cup group-stage matches.
Suryakumar has scored 134 runs
Suryakumar’s 50* in 2024 and 84* in 2026 make him the clear leading run-scorer in the rivalry.
USA have repeatedly created early pressure
USA’s bowlers dismissed India’s top order quickly in both encounters. In 2024, Kohli and Rohit fell early. In 2026, India slipped to 77/6.
India’s lower and middle order have recovered
India’s ability to recover from difficult positions has been decisive. Suryakumar was unbeaten in both successful finishes, while Shivam Dube’s 31* helped close out the 2024 chase.
Bowling has shaped both matches
Neither game has been a straightforward high-scoring T20 contest. The 2024 match was dominated by the conditions in New York, while the 2026 match featured a substantial Indian batting collapse before Suryakumar rebuilt the innings.
USA’s Progress Against India
The statistics also provide context for USA’s development as an international cricket side.
USA made their Men’s T20 World Cup debut in 2024 and reached the Super Eight stage. The ICC noted that the team defeated Pakistan during that tournament and advanced from Group A alongside India.
USA then returned for the 2026 edition, making their second T20 World Cup appearance. Their 2026 squad included 10 players who had also been part of the 2024 tournament squad.
That continuity is important when looking at the India-USA statistics. The head-to-head remains short, but the matches have taken place during a period in which USA have rapidly increased their exposure to high-level international cricket.
