Nice to see England finally win a World Cup. Although, the fact four of our players arent even English takes a little bit a shine from it. Especailly as they have been our star performers
In fairness Pieterson has an English mother and Keiswetter has a Scottish mother so they do have a genuine qualification to play.
Wonder if Jessel was watching?
I think if a player plays international cricket for one side, then they shouldn't be able to switch teams. That would have ruled out Kieswetter (SA U19s) and Morgan (Ireland).
4/11 foreign born players is just embarrassing. It does take the gloss off the win tbh.
Lumb's father played many-a-year for Yorkshire. So I don't mind that, so much. (I do mind that he is quite an ordinary player though)
