USA batter Aaron Jones has been charged with five breaches of the anti-corruption codes of Cricket West Indies (CWI) and the International Cricket Council (ICC), the governing body announced via a media release on Wednesday (January 28).

The charges largely stem from alleged incidents during Barbados' Bim10 tournament in the 2023-24 season, which comes under the jurisdiction of the CWI Anti-Corruption Code. Two of the five charges also relate to international matches and fall under the ICC's Anti-Corruption Code.

Under the CWI Code, Jones has been charged with codes dealing with fixing or attempting to fix aspects of matches in the Bim10 tournament, failing to disclose approaches to engage in corrupt conduct, and failing to cooperate with a reasonable investigation by the designated anti-corruption official.

In addition, the ICC has charged Jones with codes dealing with failing to disclose to its Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU) full details of approaches or invitations to engage in corrupt conduct, and with obstructing an ACU investigation by allegedly concealing or tampering with information relevant to the inquiry.

The charges form part of a wider investigation, with the ICC indicating that further charges against other individuals may follow in due course. Jones has been provisionally suspended from all forms of cricket with immediate effect. He has 14 days from January 28, 2026, to respond to the charges. The ICC said it would make no further comment until the conclusion of the disciplinary proceedings.

The 31-year-old Jones has featured in 100 international games (52 ODIs, 48 T20Is) for USA. In addition, he's been active on the T20 circuit, playing for the Seattle Orcas in USA's Major League Cricket and for the St Lucia Kings in the CPL and even top-scored for the Kings in the final of their triumph in 2024. Jones was last in action at the Abu Dhabi T10 league in November 2025.
