USA cricket national team: What next after T20 World Cup?

By qualifying for the Super 8s, USA secured their direct qualification for the next T20 World Cup in 2026.

But, as it stands, the US do not have any fixtures planned against the major cricketing nations before that tournament in India and Sri Lanka.

“It is not just about playing World Cups, after the way we have played hopefully there are top teams that want to play series,” batter Nitish Kumar, 30, said.

“Teams always go to the West Indies for series and it’s not a long trip so hopefully we get more quality cricket.

“The World Cup is an amazing thing. We have played really well, but we hope this is a stepping stone for even better things.”

Of the XI selected to play England, only 29-year-old captain Jones is aged below 30, leading to questions about the direction of the side going forward.

Anderson was non-committal about his future while no detail has been given on the position of coach Stuart Law beyond this tournament.

Law has said there is “promising talent” in the US among players not selected for this squad.

“We will hopefully continue to grow that, gain more interest from other parts of the US and unearth a couple of more players,” the former Australia batter said.
