One of England's most charismatic, joyful cricketers, a World Cup winner, an Ashes winner, and probably their fastest ever bowler. 🫡
People say there are fewer world class players as there were in previous generations but has there every been a better selection of wingers as Mbappe Yamal Kvara Olisse?
