The South African contingent not playing in SA

This is a continuation of a interesting discussion point i was trying to find a thread about however couldn't and unfortunately off topic another thread .

So feel free to discuss SA talent that will never wear the green and gold or even the players that have but now left and succeeding failing in other places .

Current highlighted performance by such a player is Curtis Campher that played for SA under 19 and in a losing effort yesterday against Scotland scored 120 from 108 deliveries and took 1 for 39 in 8 . Brandon McMullen and Richard Berrington also present in that match for the opposition has some South African connection .

There are some interesting definitions here like the main one of what is considered a South African in the above context , Campher and McMullen played youth cricket here in SA however Berrington was only born here .

Ricardo Vasconcelos has dual South African and Portugese nationality and grew up in SA, but is qualifying as an England player.

Was Brydon Carse another former Saffer?

I guess Kyle Abbott will never play for his country again, which is a shame.

Abbot and Olivier did make a comeback of sorts however the sad part their is more the lost years than the end of the career.

Wasn't aware Ricardo was pipped to play for England, he seems to be a par FC cricketer.

I want to see Moises Henriques play for Portugal
A little of center but fair I geuss, however seeing Portugal isn't in the top 20 or so ranked teams and not really in position to play top flight international tournaments it hard to see Profesional contracts being issues or attractive contracts. I'm south african so can't really comment on Portugese cricket
