Thanks for this.
I'll start the answers off by naming Geoff Humpage and Jim Troughton for question one - not sure about a third.
And I think David Hemp for question 4.

Good questions, Highveld! I'll add Danny Briggs to the pot for question one, struggling with the others at the moment and can only think of Brian Lara for question 7, although I'm sure that's wrong!

Did Briggs play for England while he was with us?

Very good.
I'll add Dan Mousley for Q1.
Scarborough and Tunbridge Wells are the outgrounds.
Is No 7 Deryck Murray?
As for Scotsmen, I'll start with Jim Allan, Andy Umeed, Freddie Coleman and Dougie Brown.

Question 7 - on the basis that Trinis usually have an Indian "look" I will guess at Ramadhin.

Not Tonbridge Wells

Yes DL Murray

Jim Allen was retired before Scotland played official ODI's, We need two more Scots

Good questions

Sam Hain has played ODIs and not tests. Does Neil Carter qualify for the Scotland question, I know he played for them, but maybe after he'd stopped playing for us. Dougie Brown as the coach in the world cup before he played in the world cup?

Yes Sam is on the list
Neil Carter counts as a scot & Dougie coached Namibia before he played in a world cup

England played an ODI v New Zealand in 1973 at Swansea - no idea why.

I can't get the answer to question 6, though M J K Smith played cricket and rugby for England; and Martin Donnelly played cricket for New Zealand and rugby for England.

Q6 he played Cricket Squash and Hockey for his country of birth

MJK was the last person to play international cricket and rugby for England.

WE need one more Scot, the World Cup 50 for Scotland and the Tri sport player

I think the World Cup 50 came from Freddie Coleman in a match where another Warwickshire man scored a hundred.
