@Cevno,

My Q : So regarding the President / VP of USA rule. The surname( or even the 1st name?? ) of Pres / VP has to match either the 1st or 2nd name of the player. Right?

Eds : Yeah, correct. Jager said that the surname of the [Vice] President can match either the first or second name of the player.

Woah! I thought it was surnames only. President's surnames must match that of a player's first or second name.

If I'm wrong, and it was discussed and agreed on in the thread that we could use President/VP's first names that are the same as a test player's first name, so be it. But I don't recall that being decided.

Must be a surname, not the 1st name of a president/VP as I understand it.

I think only "surname" of President/VP can be used as first/last name of cricketer

It has to be the whole surname ? Or will half or 60% of that also work?

Put the name on the table and let's decide. Or e-mail Jager and ask him.

OK by me, mainly because of its sheer creativity, and I wasn't clever enough to think of it

We agreed at the start that the word has to be more or less the same. Mondale would not be acceptable, but something like Truman -> Trueman is okay - it's the same name just with different spelling.

The surname of the president is the name that has to match, but it can match either the first or second name of the player.

But Dale is still Dale. It's the same word.

I don't see any significant difference in dropping 3 letters from Mondale to get Dale and dropping 1 letter in Adams to get Adam. Same principle.

The precedent has been set.
