Suspense Crime Sach Ka Dam
The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 has started on a good note. The first match of the World Cup was played between USA and Canada, in which the host team won by seven wickets. On June 2 (Sunday), in the Grand Prairie Stadium match in Dallas, USA had a target of 195 runs to win, which they achieved by scoring 197 runs for three wickets in 17.4 overs.
The hero of the American team’s victory was Aaron Jones, who stunned Canada with his stormy batting. Jones scored unbeaten 94 runs in just 40 balls, which included 4 fours and 10 sixes. There was a partnership of 131 runs for the third wicket between Jones and Andreas Gaus. This was the biggest partnership for America in T20 cricket. Gaus scored 65 runs in 46 balls with the help of 7 fours and three fours.
Jones enters Gayle’s club
Aaron Jones is the second batsman to hit 10 or more sixes in a T20 World Cup match. Before Jones, only Caribbean legend Chris Gayle was able to do this. America has chased a target of more than 190 runs for the first time in T20 International. If seen, this was the third most successful run chase in the history of the T20 World Cup. The USA scored 48 runs for two wickets in the first 8 overs but scored the last 149 runs in only 9.4 overs.
