Many Americans became accustomed to Aaron Jones born in New York City of Queens on Saturday night after the appearance of its 94 to lead America to the 197/3 (17.3) to 194/5 victory over Canadian rival.

It was an extraordinary appearance that placed Aaron Jones at the top of the Twenty20 2024 World Cup run board so far for most of the tournaments.

However, Aaron Jones who was brilliant did not grow in the US, but most of it he grew up in Barbados, an island that is very important for Americans and American crickets.

Because, there are other famous American heroes who are also cricket players who spend their foreign days in Barbados: President George Washington.

The stepfather of George Washington, Lawrence, Washington, suffered from tuberculosis so his doctor advised him to spend winter in a hotter tropical area.

Western Indies is the perfect place for this recovery when Uncle Lawrence lives near Bridgetown, Barbados, one of the most urban areas throughout the United Kingdom at the time.

George, 19 years old, chose to go with Lawrence rather than Lawrence’s wife because the couple had lost three children before and did not want to take the risk of death of other children through sailors, so he lived at home with their children.

The trip took six weeks when George and Lawrence traveled out of North Virginia and what would be the Washington area, DC on September 9.

This will be President Washington’s first trip outside his home province, Virginia, and he ensured to write about the dangers of the ocean, about navigation learning, and many other activities.

When the two brothers arrived at Bridgetown, they were amazed by how metropolitan, and how a small island like that developed well.

Although only 21 miles north to south and 14 miles from east to west, Barbados is an economic explosion with sugar cane and other agriculture.

However, it is not like North Virginia known to George, but rather operates dense as the main sea port, and not only the center of agricultural resources that are rich in resources and large.

Is cricket played in Barbados in autumn and winter 1751/1752 or not is a matter of debate, but we know that in 1780, the cricket is eager in the Barbados culture and we also know that cricket has reached the United States in the British in the 1600s.

At this time, the cricket and non-sipil slavery institutions that are not profitable united with slaves who often play bowling and play field positions for their master, and also play among themselves.

Both the enslaved and free population are cricket and many colonies and enslaved people view the ability to play cricket as a way to prove to the British elite that they can also be the same and win. It also helps them look more ink to get higher prestige.

President Washington’s visit to Barbados might have inspired him to play cricket, or he might have inspired Barbados to play more crickets. We really don’t know the impact on this special topic, although many historians are sure that cricket is played in Virginia and Barbados today.

But, we know that this is the first introduction of President Washington to the British empire on the imperial scale, with Barbados being fortified. This caused the search for George Washington to join the British military.

We also know that President Washington contracted small smallpox during this Barbadian trip, allowing George Washington to get immunity to this disease.

Therefore, it is safe to conclude that Barbados’s journey really helped 13 colonies towards their independence destination from 1776-1783 when the trip inspired George Washington to become an experienced general, and the trip gave him immunity to fight in the American revolution war because many other soldiers suffered small smallpox and died.

Likewise, the time of Aaron Jones in Barbados also inspired his life as an American hero, because it was in Barbados and through his Barbadi parents that Aaron Jones gained expertise in cricket.

He grew up playing for the Barbados U-16 and U-19 national teams, while also playing one season for joint tertiary institutions and university teams for athletes at the University of Western Hindia. He then joined Barbados for domestic first grade and registered cricket. While he fulfilled the requirements for the West Indies national team and the US, he finally chose to play for the US in 2018.

But, without the development of the Barbadian Youth cricket and the experience of playing with the best players in one of the most elite cricket national ponds in the world, the National Indies National Team, doubt we will see elite games like that.

However, the impact of President Washington on American cricket and cricket as a whole also cannot be reduced, because his generation of Americans found a precursor for a limited cricket overse called wicket, with a larger wicket and smaller bats that ended the match in a day. And the knowledge that the first president was a cricket player who inspired the early Americans to adopt the game until they were mostly switched to the baseball. In fact, before this change during the American civil war, Americans and Canada were very influential in cricket so they played the first official international match in 1844.

Now, when you see the main tournament, most of the adoption of the Overs cricket is limited by former players like George Washington who lead to the creation of Odi and Twenty20 that you see at the World Cup.

And, this seems to be the Aaron Jones version very superior in Twenty20 Cricket for St. Kitts and Nevis Patriots from the Caribbean Premier League, Rangpur Riders from the Bangladesh Premier League, and Seattle Orcas from the US Main League Cricket.

Maybe, this Barbadian-American connection through two American heroes and crickets gives a shadow to the Super 8 second-half match in the future or place in the final at Bridgetown’s Historic Kensington Oval.

However, the connection has given the American cricket memory for life when Aaron Jones knelt down in the celebration after six winners of the match.

The next USA opportunity at the World Cup Glory will be 10:30 in the morning, local time on Thursday 6 June against the previous world champion and the high ranked Pakistani team, at the Grand Prairie Stadium in the Dallas-Fort Metropolitan region in Texas.
