In a commanding display of cricket prowess, England secured their spot in the T20 World Cup semifinals with a resounding victory over the USA. 

Opting to bowl first after winning the toss, England's decision proved fruitful as they bundled out the USA for a mere 115 runs in 18.5 overs. 

The highlight of England's bowling attack was Chris Jordan's sensational hat-trick, which came in the penultimate over. Jordan's spell of 4/10 from 2.5 overs, coupled with contributions from Adil Rashid, Sam Curran, Reece Topley, and Liam Livingstone, restricted the USA's batting lineup.

In the chase, England's openers set a solid foundation, but it was Jos Buttler's explosive unbeaten knock of 83 runs off just 38 balls that stole the show. Buttler, supported by Phil Salt, guided England to victory with an emphatic 62 balls to spare.
