SSSSSSSHHHH !
You're not supposed to notice! (Despite the fact he can actually play cricket - which means he can't possibly be English)

He came over to play here a few years ago. He qualified to play for England after he had spent 4 years playing county cricket over here. It is either his monther or his mother's mother who has the passport to enable him to know play for england. As a South african I am gutted that he is now playing for England- goes to show that perhaps the South African set up back home is flawed for allowing one of the best players in the world to play for another country.

Same way as Kepler Wessels was qualified to play for S.A n Andy Flower for Zimbabwe. Team first country should not matter to a great player.

He has got an English Parent. When your parents come from different countries - you can play sport for either of their birth countries, or where you were born.
