T20 World Cup 2026: Top Runs & Top Wickets After Day 1

The day ended with India taking on the USA in Mumbai. The Indian side, after some batting hiccups, went on to eventually win by 30 runs and that just showed, why they are the no. 1 team in the world.
Suryakumar Yadav scored 84, which turned out to be an innings of a lifetime. Apart from that there were a few solid performances with the ball as well, including the other two matces.
