Should Teenage International Cricketers be Allowed?

International Coach
Certainly didn't expect to see Jack bloody Smith of all people mentioned here on CW

Honestly pay drivers have been a thing in motorsport for almost as long as motorsport has existed, it's not ideal, but if the alternative is ever shrinking grid sizes I find it hard to get too bothered by a few rich kids running around at the back of the field
Well the main reason it pisses me off is an actual talented young driver (e.g Golding) not having a seat but Smith running around a second slower than everyone. (very happy Golding got another break last year)

I am 100% with you on that one, that's for sure

Kane Williamson’s parents stopped him from making his first class debut a few months after his 15th birthday. ND were ready to pick him but they thought the amount of media attention a 15 year old would get in New Zealand playing professionally wouldn’t be good for him.

I would hazard a guess not many parents anywhere would step in there

International Debutant
Aslong as the support system is great I don't see a problem with it ..Some kids are just amazing and shouldn't be held back .
