Jos Buttler's explosive batting propelled England to an easy victory over USA in the Super 8 clash to qualify for the T20 World Cup 2024 semifinals. England bowled out USA for just 115 runs with Chris Jordan taking a hat-trick. After captain Buttler's unbeaten knock of 83 off 38 deliveries, England secured its place in the semi-finals. The victory gives England an edge in Group 2, with South Africa and West Indies in close competition for the remaining spot in the semi-finals.
The International Cricket Council announced on Wednesday that the upcoming T20 World Cup, set to be held in the United States and West Indies, will have the highest number of teams in its history. The tournament will be held at nine venues across North America, including a new 34,000-seater stadium in New York, which will host high-profile matches including India vs Pakistan. The ICC claims this will be the most complex schedule ever drafted for a World Cup event.
