Career

Jalon Linton's first taste of international cricket came in July 2003 when he took part in the Americas Under-19 Championship at the Maple Leaf Cricket Club in King City, Ontario. He played in all four matches[3] as the Cayman Islands finished as runners-up to hosts Canada.[4]

He first played for the senior team in the 2005 ICC Intercontinental Cup, playing first-class matches against Bermuda and Canada at the Toronto Cricket, Skating and Curling Club.[5] The following year, he played in the inaugural Stanford 20/20 tournament,[6] before playing the ICC Americas Championship in King City.[3]

He most recently played for the Cayman Islands in Division Three of the World Cricket League in Darwin, Australia[7] though he only played in one match, the third place play-off against Papua New Guinea.[3]

In April 2022, he was named in the Cayman Islands' Twenty20 International (T20I) squad for their series against the Bahamas. He made his T20I debut on 13 April 2022, for the Cayman Islands against the Bahamas.[8]
