ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 co-hosts USA had a spectacular debut as they secured a solid seven-wicket win over Canada.
After a relatively sedate start, Jones hit his first six in the ninth over delivered by Nikhil Dutta. There was no stopping the right-hand batter after that, as he went after both seamers and spinners in an innings that featured 10 sixes.
These 10 hits equalled the number of sixes Chris Gayle had hit in the inaugural game of the very first T20 World Cup back in 2007. Gayle would go on to break his own record nine years later in 2016, but Jones now has the joint second-most sixes in an innings of a T20 World Cup game, Men’s or Women’s.
