Another South African poached by the Englishmen.

 

Took a fiver today against Australia defending a paltry total. 

 

Swings the ball, bowls deadly accurate fast Yorkers and good in death overs in the shorter formats of the game.

 

Good prospect. England shaping up to be a very good side even in the bowling department for world cup 2019.

If they didn't do that, they would basically be a lighter-skinned Sri Lanka in Cricket.  

 

Jofra Archer is another one.  At least Indian cricket has the decency to just pay the top cricketers from around the world and not just buy them out.   :p:

His brother's a promising all-round left arm bowler as well, in the squad for the t20 tri-series. Could probably do with upping his pace a little bit but he's only 19 so he's got time for that.

Born in  England too so not bought out like his brother supposedly is

One day specialist, was shite in the Tests. His younger brother Sam is the real deal though, possibly another Stokes. And he's English (born in Northampton then grew up in SA but more English than his SA born brother.) Those nice kiwis that everyone loves have more overseas born players these days anyway yet no one talks about them.

he was poor in the Ashes...often clocking sub 80mph.

Yes, thats the difference. In test matches in general bowlers can’t keep their speed, especially such bowlers who are not express pace.

 

 

He can do better job in ODI’s than run in and bowl all day in Test matches by bowling high speeds.

 

He has a good inswing and at 85-87 seemed every effective today. Too early to make much of him. Bowled well today against a batting side whoch has been pathetic in this series, this Australian batting.

They've both been all over the place. Their dad is Zimbabwean player Kevin Curran but he wasn't playing internationals by the time either of them were born. Played county cricket for Northants (where he met his English wife) up until 2000 therefore during their early years they spent the summers in England, but he played for Boland in the English winters (hence Tom being born there). A while after he retired he became Zimbabwe coach so they moved back there .  When their dad died pretty young they both moved over here to finish their education.

Yeah I know about Kevin , 53 he was . Was one of the fittest counties  player.
