In another display of exceptional yorker bowling, USA's Ali Khan sealed a smash-and-grab victory over the tournament hosts. A triple-wicket 49th over capped his maiden five-for as USA eventually held on by two runs.
In a breakout year for the left-arm medium pacer, his finest performance came when his country needed it most. He struck on the first ball of the chase, then four more times in the Powerplay in a win that helped reclaim ODI status for PNG.
