Ireland won the toss and elected to bat first, making 217/8 from their 50 overs, with Jensen taking figures of 3/27 from 8 overs. Denmark successfully chased their target, winning by 5 wickets, with Jensen not required to bat.[2] He made a further List A appearance in the tournament against Kenya.[3] Kenya won the toss and elected to put Denmark into bat, with Denmark being dismissed for just 85, with Jensen ending the innings not out on 18, which was the highest score of the innings.
