Fri Oct 18 00:22:38 UTC 2024: ## USA Cricket Announces Squad for T20 Series Against Nepal, Featuring Ali Khan’s Return
**[City, State] -** The USA Cricket team is gearing up for a three-match T20 series against Nepal, with the first match scheduled for October 19th. The USA Cricket Board has announced a squad featuring the return of fast bowler Ali Khan, who last played in the T20 World Cup 2024 against England.
Khan’s return comes after a three-month absence due to an injury sustained during the Caribbean Premier League. His inclusion provides a much-needed boost to the American bowling attack, having consistently delivered strong performances for the team.
Leading the USA team will be captain Monank Patel, who has been a consistent presence at the helm. He is recovering from a shoulder injury sustained in a T20 match against Namibia, but is expected to be fit for the series.
The USA will be looking to build on their recent success, including a notable victory over Pakistan in the T20 World Cup 2024. The upcoming series against Nepal serves as preparation for the World Cup qualifiers, with the team aiming to continue its upward trajectory.
The full USA squad for the T20 series against Nepal is as follows:
* Monank Patel (Captain)
* Abhishek Paradkar
* Andrez Gauus
* Ayan Desai
* Harmeet Singh
* Juanoe Dryesdale
* Milind Kumar
