The United States team was able to secure a seven-wicket victory over Canada in the Group A match of the T20 World Cup cricket tournament at Grand Prairie Stadium in Grand Prairie, Texas on June 1, 2024. This was due in part to the impressive performance of Aaron Jones, who played an unbeaten innings of 94.
Canada batted first and posted a total of 194 for five. In response, the USA team chased down the target with ease, thanks to the leadership of Andries G’ous and Jones’s unbeaten innings. Throughout his innings, Jones hit 10 sixes and four boundaries, helping his team to victory.
Despite a strong start by Canada, with Navneet Dhaliwal scoring 61 and Aaron Johnson contributing 23, the USA team ultimately secured the win without much trouble. The final scores were Canada 194/5 in 20 overs and the USA team with 197/3 in 17.4 overs. It was Aaron Jones’s impressive performance that was a key factor in the USA’s successful start to their T20 World Cup campaign.
