After England's dominant victory over the United States, Chris Jordan left his post-match news conference clutching a small cardboard box. Inside was the match ball he used to secure England's first hat-trick in T20 internationals.
Jordan expressed his joy and appreciation for the moment, stating that he would cherish it.
This hat-trick holds a special significance for Jordan, as he was born in Barbados and began his cricket journey on the island before moving to London as a teenager.
The Kensington Oval, where he first witnessed a live international match, holds sentimental value for him, as he used to give throw-downs to West Indies legend Brian Lara on its outfield during his childhood.
