Defending champions England toppled USA with relative ease in their Super Eight match of the ongoing 2024 T20 World Cup at Bridgetown’s Kensington Oval on June 23.


Here’s the timeline of how ENG vs USA panned out in Barbados:


ENG vs USA Highlights: Reece Topley, Sam Curran Strike Early For England

England seamers Reece Topley and Sam Curran removed USA openers Andries Gous and Steven Taylor respectively within the opening powerplay. While Topley had Gous caught by at deep midwicket in the first over, Curran dismissed a well-set Taylor as USA slipped to 43-2 in a 48-run powerplay start.


ENG vs USA Highlights: Adil Rashid Rattles USA’s Middle-Order

Primary English spinner Adil Rashid and part-timer Liam Livingstone broke through USA’s middle-order by taking three wickets between them. After Rashid (2-13) knocked over Nitish Kumar and USA captain Aaron Jones with some sharp turn, Livingstone had Milind Kumar to finish with figures of 1-24.


ENG vs USA Highlights: Chris Jordan Takes A Hat-Trick In Four-Wicket Over

Shortly after Curran curtailed a threatening sixth-wicket partnership between Corey Anderson and Harmeet Singh by accounting for the latter’s departure at 115-6, Chris Jordan picked up four wickets in a space of just five deliveries during the penultimate over of the USA innings.

Jordan’s four-wicket burst even included a hattrick, as USA’s entire innings crumbled at 115 in 18.5 overs.


ENG vs USA Highlights: England Make 60 In Opening Powerplay

While English opener Phil Salt took a calculated approach, his captain and partner Jos Buttler went berserk from the outset as his team raced to 60 runs by the end of the first six overs. Taking the aggressive route, Buttler raced to a 26-ball 44* with a couple of sixes to his name from the opening powerplay.


ENG vs USA Highlights: Buttler Blasts 38-Ball 83* In England’s 10-Wicket Win

Chasing 116 runs for a win, Jos Buttler ended up blasting his 24th T20I half-century, reaching the feat in just 32 balls.

The English captain tonked a total of seven sixes, including five off a single Harmeet Singh over, to smack 83 unbeaten runs from 38 balls to steer his nation to a comprehensive 10-wicket win in less than 10 overs alongside silent partner Phil Salt (25* off 21 balls).
