How good a keeper is Inglis? Australia have been nicking our best players ever since Charles Bannerman.

English fans must lament Labuschagne defecting to Australia instead of England as is customary too.

I actually discovered last week that he played at a ground I'm quite familiar with and lived near my cousin when he was a teen.

He actually played with @Marcuss in England for a while.

Didn't know he was English. How's he grown up watching 2005 Ashes being from Leeds wanting to play for Australia. What a traitor

 

[Chubb]

Renshaw is England-qualified too isn't he?

Yeah both him + Inglis were born in England.

Soon England’s gonna have more people born in England playing for them than we do born in Australia!

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Renshaw is an interesting case, born in England but spent a fair bit of his childhood in NZ iirc. He's been around


Marnus was 10 when his family arrived in QLD, certainly doesn't deserve to be put in the Archer/KP bracket at all

True. Though the only people around the England setup in that bracket are Archer and Malan (who was actually born in England, but grew up in South Africa and I think is largely of Afrikaans linage?)
