Players from Associate Nations to watch out for
Aaron Jones (USA)
Aaron Jones will play a key role in USA batting line-up. The New Yorker boasts an ODI high score of 123* and will be key to American fortunes in the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024.
Harsh Thaker (Canada)
Harsh Thaker has the ability to win matches for Canada with bat or ball in hand. The 26-year-old has impressed in both limited overs formats in the past year and will be determined to step up to the plate this summer.
Gerhard Erasmus (Namibia)
Captain Gerhard Erasmus is the man that makes Namibia tick. The all-rounder has been there from the very start, appearing in Namibia’s first-ever T20I and has been influential ever since. The 2023 ICC Associate Cricketer of the Year will hope to continue that this summer.
Rohit Paudel (Nepal)
Opener Rohit Paudel has been key to recent Nepalese success and will continue to be so during the summer. The captain is just 21 years old but is the lynchpin of the side. His runs from the top of the order will be crucial.
Max O Dowd (Netherlands)
Big hitting Max O’Dowd will hope to continue to lead from the front for the Netherlands, with the opening batter key to their chances. O’Dowd is the top T20I run scorer in Dutch history and will be determined to extend that record in the summer.
