Each year many Aussies play in England in the county competition, I have just been reading some of the latest batting stats.
Murray Godwin-932-av72.23
Micheal Hussey-855-av53.43
Stuart Law-862-av78.36
Darren Lehmann-738-av73.80
Martin Love-774-av5953
Gregg Blewett-795-av56.78
I think our second level batsmen have set the pace in the county scene this year as well.

You can't claim Murray Goodwin as he's played for Zimbabwe if you're going to do that then you can have bloody Martin Mcague & Allan Mullaly & the Hollioake brothers & that Italian guy (Joe Scuderi?) & let's see if your figures look quite so good then!

You are most probably right and it was a bit forward of me to put Goodwin in the Aussie stats but given he played in WA last season and started his career of in WA we will still claim him as one of our own.:)

Yeah I know I was just trying to make the point that not all Aussie cricketers are bloody champions over here, just about 2/3 of them LOL.
