Hi. Can anyone help me please? My son is doing a project on South African Cricket and Rugby. He's trying to find the following information.


How many non-Kolpak players have NOT been qualified to play for England in the County Championship since 2004?
Likewise, how many players have been qualified to play for England over the same period?
Ideally he'd like this broken down by year and county. He's looking to get information on total numbers qualified/non-qualified and %s.


He's collected information on all the Kolpak players since 2004 but this doesn't account for the non-Kolpaks who still don't qualify for England (e.g. Ervine and Berg at Hants)


The project is on "How has Team Selection Impacted South African Cricket and Rugby?" He's got lots of great information on their transformation coaching and talent identification programmes but not the player exodus. He's written to the PCA but they can't help. The ECB haven't replied yet. Funnily enough the Rugby PCA and the Aviva Premiership Office haven't got back to him either!

Here's a viewable copy of the Kolpak info if anyone's interested.


Thanks for any help or ideas you have.
