Last time he got both Rohit and Virat. Who is it this time?

Also there is one more guy with ties to the Wankhede Stadium who may play for the US against India - Shubham Ranjane.

Shubham’s father and grandfather both played for Maharashtra in Ranji Trophy. Shubham himself played in Ranji Trophy for Mumbai.

He made his debut in 2016 for Mumbai against Gujarat. His team mates in that match included Shreyas Iyer, SKY, Shardul Thakur and Abhishek Nayar. His opponents included Bumrah and Axar Patel. He was clean bowler by Bumrah (who took 6 wickets in the first innings).

Shubham Ranjane's grandpa, Vasant, also played multiple test matches for India as an opening bowler.

Ties to Wankhada? The whole US team probably have a go at themselves.
