Did you guys not know about this previously? I'm not quite sure how much T K-C was involved in this, but Clarke has been off the England radar ever since then.
I knew that Clarke had been involved in something really bad but never bothered to find out exactly what. And I didn't realise just how much the WhatsApp group really was the trigger for what actually happened; granted T K-C was the least involved of the three for sure.

K-C was blacklisted for a while but he’s got a couple of caps now I think. Clarke is still persona non grata.

60kph straight breaks getting wickets is both funny and a ****ing indictment on the game and the wicket

Nope, no caps....and this from Wiki.

In May 2019, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) withdrew Kohler-Cadmore from the England Lions' squad, after being named during Alex Hepburn's rape trial.[8] Hepburn was found guilty of rape, and although the judge said that Kohler-Cadmore "did nothing wrong",[8] the ECB were concerned about the disrespectful messages about women that had been exchanged.[8]

To be honest, his form since then has never really warranted England consideration, especially given the plethora of wicket keeping batsmen available.

Ah yes. He was called up for one of the second string ODI squads last year, but didn’t play.


This article studious ignores the elephant in the room.

It's an obsession they seem to have with overseas players. Just because they're allowed to have 3 they think they have to have 3 . . . even when there are better local cricketers. This isn't the IPL, you're not going to have 3 or 4 gun overseas players to choose from per team.

I think increasing it from 2 was a mistake. It hasn't helped the quality at all.

I can see what they were going for tbf. There was significant concerns a few years back that the talent pool was being so diluted that it was seriously devaluing the product because they were being forced to play junk grade cricketers just to fill numbers.

Whether that's improved is another matter.
