Not for another five years apparently as he arrived in England after he was 18 Yes, which is a really stupid rule as he has an English parent and a British passport. I don't mind bringing in the 5 year rule to qualify on residency grounds, but not when you already have a British parent and/or passport, yet happened to be born or raised abroad. Tom Curran's bowling was exceptional yesterday and I thought we were in trouble after leaving Woakes out. Jake Ball was useless.
Optimistic as ever |

Anyone who has the suspicion that the ECB are an actively bad force for the English game doesn't get too much argument from me.
