World Cricket II

[P_R]

Why it is not ODD when a Kiwi plays for a POM Side??. What has immigration got to do with recruiting sports talent from other countries?

England has been porous in having people from the Dominion come over, all the time, no? Born in Auckland, working in Dorset, flitting back and forth type thing is very very common. Which is why it doesn't feel odd to me. It incenses Plum that people go back and forth between Ireland and England. It doesn't strike me as odd.
I was briefly nursing hopes of Saqlain playing for England. Woipf Britis citizen, aNNan defendent. They could've fasttracked his visa process or something- adhu kooda seyyAma vittutAinga waste fellows. idhai ellAm kaiezhuththu pOduradhai thavira raaNiyammAvukku enna vElai.

Ninga hire pannum podhu ODD illainna naanga pannalum adhu ODD illa than.

ippadi dhaan solluveengannu sollittEnE

It is Indeed ODD that players from various countries when they play for England. People play for pride in National sides. That is no more the case wrt England.

God Save the Qyoon ellAm malai yERi pOchchu. New definition of nation-ku vaanga.

Flavian Aponso played for Holland. Western countries-la appadi dhaanE irukkum. Their locals will have to compete with international meritocracy to make the cut.

Indha nadharithanam is allowed only because of Imperial cricket conference being run by ECB and CA.

ICC run by ECB, CA-vA..right vidu.

Will that be ODD for Feeyaar? Afterall, enga frontier Gandhi desam dhaane adhu?

Won't seem odd to me if Pakistan does so. I presume many Afghanis move in and out of Pak, work there, families spread across the two countries etc. I don't think that is the case with India, right? Whereas there are many families spread across India and Pak, India and Nepal etc. Many people who work here. Lankans, Bangladeshis. Won't at all be odd to hire from these countries.

btw Khan Abdul Gaffar Khan was an Afghani from what is essentially Pakistan today. panjAyaththukkuRiya pradhEsam. avarai Afghanistan dEsaththukku thaarai vaarththu kuduththeengannA saNdaikku varuvaainga.

Also, why are people allowed to toggle between Ireland and England - there was an instance where an irish player played for England and ireland within a single month - how explooittative that is?

Neenga anga ellAm pOyirukkeenga, vaazhndhurukeenga. Ingittum, angittum pOyittE dhaanE iruppAinga. idhu sagajam dhaanE.

Maaveeran Michael Collins naRpaNi manRam kooda oththukkuvAinga.

Why don't we hear of the evil ECB in popular media?

satti, agappai
The 'evil' is your allegation ECB is blocking Ireland playing tests. Which is highly speculative, will come to that in a bit.
Or is having them play cricket for England, that itself is 'evil'??

Why is it that it is always bcci's fault? Who is playing a propoganda war? Who is falling for it?

ippo naan BCCI paththi edhunA sonnEnA? enna propoganda. enna falling.
