The longest running bilateral rivalry in international cricket is set to be revived later this year with the resumption of the KA Auty Cup series between USA and Canada, which has been tentatively scheduled in Los Angeles in October.
The series was last played in 2013 as a two-day match, a 50-over game and a Twenty20 doubleheader in King City, outside of Toronto. The series was shelved in 2014 and 2015 as the boards of both countries ran into financial difficulties. However, discussions have taken place between Cricket Canada and ICC officials, acting in their caretaker role overseeing USA cricket, to restart it.
“One of the advantages of the ICC being intimately involved here is that we care about all the members in the region,” Tim Anderson, ICC head of global development, told ESPNcricinfo. “We understand that Cricket Canada hasn’t had a lot of international exposure recently. So we thought that maybe it’s a good idea to get Canada involved with some preparation that helps them and helps USA.”
