    If I was a conspiracy theorist, I would say ICC has paid off Pakistan to help grow the game in the US

    Makes sense, cricket and baseball obviously aren't identical but do have some transferable skills, and it's not like USA is short of immigration from cricketing nations.

    When I was working at an American university 20 years ago there were always Indian students playing cricket on the campus footpaths. I'm sure many stayed in the US.

    Aaron Jones was born in NYC but played mostly in Barbados.

    @Bovidae Yeah, there was a cricket league in the Bay Area then, due to the south asian students and employees in the area.

    It might be his name.

    Zampa is a stupid name.

    This is also why I hate Travis Head doing well

    With Zampa I think it is the long hair and the headband for me

    Then again, there’s always Michael Clarke, Shane Watson and Brad Haddin to help even up the ledger
