Sure hope USACA's planning some training matches for the team.  Or are

they going to be just sitting around, doing nothing, until they leave for UAB in March.

I think now we some light at the end of the tunnel for USA Cricket. The selection panel and USACA Cricket Committee Chairman deserves a pat on the back for showing the courage in picking a balanced team with experienced seniors and young players with future in the mind. I am sure they are planning some training camp and practice matches and be prepared for the tournament. This team has a lot of hungry players who will work hard and be prepared as their future depends on their performance. Sushil nadkarni is a great leader and will get the best out of his players with hard work. Congratulations to Sushil and his team USA. Guys just work hard and make us all proud. Lets have a fresh start and we all need to support our team. Regions can make sure that these players get help in training within region and are physically fit. They still have 5 weeks to prepare. All the best team USA. This is far better team and I am sure with hard work they will do well in UAE.
