The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

Oh, didn't realise that.

I was just being lazy as didn't know who to replace with Stokes. I never knew Watling wasn't a Kiwi lol

 

[honestbharani]

The England thing was an obvious joke man, come on.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Obviously Wagner and Labuschagne when they retire too.

Came from SA as a 10 year old

So can we make a current Cricketer XI from players born elsewhere? We have Labuschagne, Stokes, Watling, Archer, Wagner and ?

Renshaw and Khawaja also if no-one else

de Grandhomme
+ Imran Tahir

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Put Ted Dexter (Italy) in your retired team. George Headley was born in Panama and Archie Jackson in Scotland.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Were the Currans born in England or Zim?

 

[Fuller Pilch]

I'm too lazy to check

 

[ataraxia]

Tom in SA, Sam in Eng.

 

[honestbharani]

There is a middle one too, right? He plays FC cricket too?

I had Archie Jackson first but replaced him due such a tragically short career. Dexter and Headley are definite upgrades on Smith and Lamb

Ben (born in Eng)

 

[Fuller Pilch]

I expect to see Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra to debut for NZ soon.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Also Douglas Jardine was born in India

would be interesting to see a proper imports eleven rather than relying on people coming over as toddlers. im guessing you'd see a lot of isolation era south africans.

From aussie tragic's XI only DeFreitas, Strauss and Prior (plus Symonds as the 12th Man) came across as youngsters. Malcolm and Caddick did make their debuts in England but the rest all did in South Africa or (in Grimmett's case) New Zealand. Compare how Greig and Pietersen sound to Symonds and Strauss.

 

[Howe_zat]

Though I don’t think either makes the team, Geraint Jones was born in Papua New Guinea and Amjad Khan was born in Denmark.

Trent Johnston could get a game perhaps.
