Aaron Jones opens up ahead of the qualifier:

Ahead of the qualifier on Monday, the USA captain was quick to make his emotions fell and said, “It won’t be an easy task, with USA taking on Jersey, Singapore and hosts Zimbabwe in the group stage of the eight-team tournament before a possible cut-throat semi-final clash against a different opponent from the opposing group.”

But Jones is confident is his team’s ability, with USA having displayed their capabilities with impressive performances during two warm-up match victories against Jersey at the start of this month.It’s enough to have Jones thinking about the possibility of reaching the pinnacle of T20 cricket at the World Cup in Australia later this year and what may actually lie ahead for USA given they will feature in the 2024 event as tournament hosts.

“If we could get to World Cup so you get to the highest level of cricket, to compete with the West Indies, Australia, India, all the teams that are playing full member cricket for sure, it would open a lot of doors,” Jones said.

“Not only for us but definitely the youngsters coming up in the USA. We know for sure that the USA is a big, big market in terms of fans that watch and support cricket.
