US Cricket Team's Old Pani Puri Video in Gujarat Goes Viral: 'Deep Down, Everyone Is Desi'

• An old video of USA cricketers, including Aaron Jones, Sanjay Krishnamurthi, and Utkarsh Srivastava, enjoying pani puri in Gujarat has resurfaced and gone viral.
• The video, originally shot in Anand City, Gujarat, in early 2025, shows players relishing the Indian street food delicacy.
• The clip gained renewed attention amid the USA team's recent arrival in Mumbai for a warm-up game ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup 2026.
• The video is from a training program ahead of an ICC CWC League 2 assignment, not their latest trip, a fact confirmed by Aaron Jones' recent ICC suspension.
• The USA squad for the T20 World Cup 2026 features a mix of players of Indian and Pakistani origin, including captain Monank Patel (from Gujarat) and Saurabh Netravalkar (Mumbai-born).
