And the final score &#8212; India winning by 7 wickets &#8212; suggests that it was a one-sided affair.<br \/>But it was not the case.<br \/>The newcomers showed superb grit and determination and gave India a run for their money before succumbing to their first-ever defeat at the cricketing extravaganza. <br \/>Aided by a tricky surface at the Nassau Stadium in New York, the USA team gave their all and won hearts despite the defeat.<br \/>In chase of a below-par 111, India took 18.2 overs to cross the finish line and secure a spot in the Super 8s.<\/p>\n<p>With nothing to lose, USA came out in all attack mode, defending 110 and tasted early success.<br \/>The third ball of the game saw left-arm <!-- -->Saurabh Netravalkar<!-- --> getting rid of star India batter <!-- -->Virat Kohli for his first ever golden duck in the T20 World Cups.<br \/>Stunning a sea of blue at the stadium, Netravalkar got Kohli to edge a delivery outside off to give India an early blow.<br \/>The left-arm pacer then struck again, first-ball of his second over, this time sending back India skipper <!-- -->Rohit Sharma<!-- --> for 3.<br \/>Stunned early in the chase, India found themselves reeling at 10 for 2 in the third over.<br \/>Last-match hero Rishabh Pant and Suryakumar Yadav then tried to steady the chase as the US bowlers kept the Indians under pressure with some superb bowling.<br \/>When it looked like India were back on course in chase, Pakistan-born pacer Ali Khan got rid of Pant for 18, once again putting pressure back on the chasing team.<br \/>With runs hard to come by on a bowling friendly surface, Suryakumar and Shivam Dube struggled really hard in the middle.<br \/>After the fall of Pant in the 8th over, India only managed a sole boundary till the final ball of the 14th over.<br \/>And in between that, Suryakumar also got a huge lifeline when he was dropped in the 13th over by Netravalkar at short third.<br \/>At the end of the 14th over in 111 chase, India were struggling at 67 for 3 as USA bowlers bowled their hearts out.<br \/>The 15th over finally saw India batters breaking the shackles with Shivam Dube whacking Corey Anderson to release the building pressure.<br \/>From there one India did not look back and both the set batters Surya and Dube looked at ease.<br \/>USA getting docked 5 penalty runs as they went past 60 seconds-mark to start a new over 3 times in the innings &#8212; new rule &#8212; also didn&#8217;t help their cause as India were now back in control.<br \/>With a flurry of boundaries, Surya and Dube wrapped up the chase in the 19th over.<\/div>\n<p><script>!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isFBCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        if (f.fbq) return;\n        n = f.fbq = function() {\n          n.callMethod ?
