USA won 4-0 against Canada in their previous bilateral series in April. Bangladesh meanwhile won 4-1 against Zimbabwe recently so both teams will be keen to get out there and soak up conditions that will be similar to the World Cup. The hosts will be upbeat to face a tougher challenge against a Test playing nation in the lead up to the multi-nation tournament. Can they pull off an upset or two? We will find out.
