[ad_1]

Aaron Jones‘ success for USA at the T20 World Cup 2024 has earned him a contract in the CPL. Jones, who qualifies as a local player through his Barbados passport, was signed by St Lucia Kings in Monday’s draft for the 2024 season, which runs from August 29 to October 4.

Jones hit 94 not out against Canada on the opening night of the World Cup, and also made a vital 36 not out in USA’s tie against Pakistan, which they later won in the Super Over. He has previously played in West Indies’ regional set-up for Barbados and Combined Campuses and Colleges, and was an unused member of the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots squad in CPL 2019.

The six CPL 2024 franchises had already done most of their recruiting through retentions and pre-signings, and Kyle Mayers was the first to be signed in Monday’s draft, joining Patriots. Mikyle Louis, who made his Test debut at Lord’s last week, will also play for Patriots, along with Ryan John and Veerasammy Permaul.

Isai Thorne, the fast bowler who has played for West Indies at the last two Under-19 World Cups, has earned a contract with Barbados Royals. He is currently in the UK with West Indies’ Test squad as a net bowler and “development player”. Royals have also drafted Kadeem Alleyne and Nathan Sealy.

Raymon Reifer, who played T20I cricket for West Indies as recently as last year, joined Guyana Amazon Warriors along with Ronaldo Alimohamed and Matthew Nandu, while Khari Campbell, Johann Jeremiah, Mikkel Govia and Akeem Auguste are part of the Kings’ squad along with Jones.

Antigua and Barbuda Falcons – who will replace Jamaica Tallawahs in CPL 2024 – have signed Roshon Primus, Justin Greaves, Jahmar Hamilton, Teddy Bishop and Kofi James, while Trinbago Knight Riders have brought in Nathan Edward and Shaquere Parris to fill their emerging player spots.
