One unpicked player to play for your country

If tomorrow, you were given the chance to pick one player from another country, who hasn't made a Test, ODI or T20 debut yet, to play for your country, who would it be?

Might be Phil Hughes, for mine...

If he has to play now (i.e. you can't just poach him and then groom him to be a gun) then I'd probably go with Nannes to play for India.

I just don't know enough about uncapped players from other countries to choose.

In Indian players, if we're talking test matches, then Subramaniam Badrinath.

From another country to play for India, then I'd have no idea. Maybe Dirk Nannes from Australia as he'd add variety to our attack. Other than that, I have no idea.

If he's as good as he is in ICC, James Harris from Glamorgan. Insanely awesome.

haha, Nannes will play the 20/20 WC for Holland surely!

wouldn't know, probably indeed a fast bowler...as most associates lack those!

Can't wait till Dirk fills in some star player and puts him out for 3 months with a broken jaw.

Especially if it's a beamer.

Haha, this is not what I signed up for!

Not much chance you'll play us so us Associates ought to stick together!
that is true, although th ECB has a huge crush on Scotland and Ireland and seemingly trying to work the Netherlands out of everything involved with cricket.:dry:

Yeah, if by "huge crush on" you mean "constantly steal our best players so that we'll never, ever have any chance of playing test cricket".

Thierry Henry to pick Roneel Hira. You heard it here first.
I can't, it has to be someone from another country......

Actually tbh at first I thought it was someone from my own country, and my mind actually turned to Bruce Martin (for ODIs anyway.)

I certainly couldn't pick Roneel for tests lol
