That's it from the fourth game of the series. USA have pocketed the series but would want to win the last one as well. Canada bridged the gap today but they still need to be at their best if they want to get one back. They will be playing for pride plus they will be playing in WC later as well. So, every game is vital as preparations are in full swing for every team. We will be back with action from the final T20I. Bye bye for now...

Harmeet Singh, Player of the Match: Have waited for it for a long time in my career. Trying to express myself. Just trying to be myself. I let God take care of the rest. I play with lengths and angles. I play with my release points as well. The wicket was gripping. I went fuller on the stumps at the back end. It's been a pleasure playing with these guys. Everyone going out there expressing themselves. The coaching staff has been backing us as well. We had Corey coming in as well. Good days for USA cricket.

Monank Patel: We wanted to win. Losing the toss was good for us. Powerplay was crucial. We came back really well. Corey is an experienced player. Brings a lot of value. His guidance and support will help us.

Saad Bin Zafar: Few things we were doing wrong. We gave away extra runs in the powerplay. We managed to pull it back. 160 was chaseable on this wicket. We lost wickets in patches. Bajwa played an exceptional knock. But he has shown promise to us. We are still looking at so many plans going into the WC. We want to win the last game. We slacked a little in the fielding department.

13:13 Local Time, 18:13 GMT, 23:43 IST: The difference between USA and Canada was Harmeet Singh. He played a cameo earlier and then picked up four wickets with the ball. He meant Canada's back was always broken during the chase. Bajwa and Zafar tried hard for Canada but that was it. Harmeet struck again and meant even that effort was killed off. To start off the USA innings, Steven Taylor got them off to a flier but didn't find too much of support from the other end. But towards the end of the innings, it was Harmeet who provided them with a meaty end. USA have now won the series 3-0 with a game to spare.
