Anderson threatening to punch Bailey in the face, while Bailey was wearing a helmet. Are you sure he's England's best sledger? ::)

Hahahahaha. Good Anderson you flog. Clarke was just unlikely to be caught by the stump mic on national television, doubt this stuff is uncommon normally.

I would have thought Ballance or Bairstow would be the guy to come in.

You lads will love the fact that Stokes is Kiwi-born.  :P

They really could have an International XI. They still have Prior and KP from South Africa, Ballance from Zimbabwe, Stokes from New Zealand. Maybe Sam Robson the Aussie gets a call up soon as well?

Where a player was born doesn't have much to do with it. If they have a passport for that country, then they can play for them, as long as they haven't represented another country internationally in something like the last 4 years.

There are plenty of players who were born in one country and have played for another. Some players have even played for two countries like Eoin Morgan and Luke Ronchi.

I think the best example of this is Kepler Vessels who played for both South Africa and Australia.

I was talking to my friend about it and then I realised it as well. Smart person.
