Playing cricket in the FAR NORTH in AUGUST is a triumph of hope over expectation. You hope it won't rain but you can expect it will.

What's wrong with the Arsegas Bowel?

I can't think of the ninth, I'd have to look up some teams to get it

Good question

To be fair, you've done well to get Dawid Malan Snr, who played 4 FC matches for Western Province, scoring 19 runs at 3.80!

Raymond Jennings played 179 FC matches for Transvaal.

The other one is pretty tough.

Sibley? His dad played and is a coach / involved in broadcasting but I don't know if he ever played a First Class match.

I knew Jennings - I heard an interview with him when his son was picked
TBH Malan was a wild guess - but cricket's not the big Afrikaan game so if the son played it, there was a chance the father did

There are also at least six England players in 2020, who have BROTHERS who are FC cricketers.

Not counting Banton this time, as his younger brother Jaques has so far only played second XI cricket for Worcester.

Currans are two of them!

Root's brother scored runs against Sussex a couple of years back
Jennings has a brother who plays

Let me think

EDIT Moeen of course

The Currans I was only counting as one - as in they have one OTHER brother (Ben) who is a FC cricketer.

Dylan Jennings is another.

And Billy Root, of course.

I have three more...

Edit, for your edit: yes Kadeer Ali, obvs.

Two more...
