Well yeah that's what I said. No robinson, crawley, compton, bell drumond, gilchrist, bird, cox, milnes

Most if not all county sides don't play their full side against overseas teams, not even against national teams.

I can already imagine PJ and Slcfan going circles on the Kent XI. The force is strong with these two.
BTW, when it comes to names, I'd rather be a Chow Chow than a Madushanka.

Okay, thank you. I meant that in response to SW saying it was impressive, reminding that it wasn't a particularly incredible feat in case he did not realise

I do not understand the naming convention. Which name is their family name?

It's the trend where they drop the last name and use middle name as the family name, make sense when everyone is a Silva or a Perera.

PJ is Vader. slf1 is Luke.
I can't wait for the day slf1 discovers that PJ is actually his dad.
