Malachi Jones - Bermuda - Batting Allrounder

Malachi Jones is an all-rounder who plays for Bermuda. He made his ODI debut in 2006 against Kenya and was also a part of the team for the 2006 ICC Americas Championship. He won the Best Young Player award at the end of Bermuda's domestic season in 2006. He was only 17 when he was included in the 2007 World Cup squad. He dismissed Robin Uthappa, caught by slip fielder Dwayne Leverock with his first ball of the 2007 World Cup and became the Second cricketer to take a wicket with his first World Cup delivery. That was his only match in the tournament.

He was then a part of the Under-19 team for the 2008 Under-19 World Cup and later a part of Bermuda's squad for the Intercontinental Shield competition in 2009-10. His form suffered as the team got fewer chances to play at the international level.

Jones made his T20 debut against Scotland in 2013 for the World T20 Qualifier. However, Bermuda was not able to qualify for the main tournament.
