Here’s What Aaron Jones Said, As Reported By ICC<\/span><\/h3>\n

“The boys are happy, the boys are excited to play against the best teams in the world. We wanted to do that (come in with energy). We’ve been speaking about that over the last couple of years. And here we are now. We’re just going to enjoy our cricket and, as I said (before matchday one), play fearless cricket all the time.”<\/p>\n

“I think it starts with the belief that we could beat anybody. Even before the World Cup we’ve had a few series and obviously everybody knows we came out on top against Bangladesh, who are a really good team to be honest. We always believed before the World Cup that we could beat bigger teams or better teams and obviously we showed it against Pakistan. It’s going to be the same mindset going into the Super Eights now.”<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to play hard cricket and if you come out on top it’s good, if you don’t come out on top then we learn. I like to play the situation. I like to play for my team always. If it’s the case I’m playing a game and we need five runs an over, I’ll bat to suit. If we need 15 runs or over, I’ll bat to suit. I don’t really worry about the whole talk about strike rate and all that other stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n

“Over the last few years, we’ve been talking about growing a bigger following as it relates to US cricket and I think it’s growing slowly right now so we definitely thank them for sure. Just keep supporting us, keep following us, keep watching our games and we’ll definitely put on a good show for everybody for sure.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
