I hope that USA can win this and restore some pride in cricket in this country. We need to do the following (1) Select a good team mix in some younsters for the futute. (2)Get a qualify coach no friend and company business. (3) Administrators keep out of the selection process.

I think they had a good side for the Division 5 in jersy but the problem with USA team is lack of traning before they go to any tour and that effects them.
They won all the games in Jersy except the flop of batting order chasing 200 runs.....

I too hope that the USA wins. And I completely agree with you both. The USA is one of the best at everything other sport. Why can't it be Cricket now??
I know that they have the capability to go out and show what they're made of. All they need is an amazing coach, some heavy practice, and (if not a few) at least ONE chance!! They'll rock the Cricketing World!!

See all of that started with suspension of USACA from ICC and USA ended up in Division 5 and just lost one game and everybody is negative..
I hope they win this division 1 in FL and make everybody happy..But they require a camp before they start the tournment...they need to be together like any other team so know which department they have to work to make them better group of guys....
I wish you Good luck USA.....

I agree, even though the USA's only lost 2 International Games - against Australia and New Zealand; two high-class teams - the USA definitely has a chance. Now all we've gotta do is take a grasp of it and show the world that the USA is pretty good at Cricket. It's just that the ICC doesn't wanna spend any money on the US. Dunno why everyone is so prejudice (I know that's one thing against us) to the USA. It also has a lot to do with politics, and that's just WRONG! Cricket is a SPORT, NOT A DEBATING SOCIETY! I guess we'll have to see what happens, huh?
