 X put themselves at a disadvantage from 1968 until 1992 by insisting that
all its players must have been born within the historic county boundaries
of X while all the other county teams strengthened themselves by signing
overseas Test players. In 1992, the birth qualification rule was first
modified to include those educated within the county, a dispensation that
allowed Michael Vaughan to play; and was then abandoned altogether. X's
first overseas player that season was Y.

 Dave X was kind enough to pass on some information about the cricket match
organized by A during filming in Malta. Dave and his sons B and C had to visit
Europe for media work at the World Cup in England, so the family decided to have
a mini-reunion. However, the two days of playing turned out to be a thrashing of
“X's Cricketing Cronies."
 The event was instigated by A, who saw the opportunity for a cricket contest in the
best traditions of the Coliseum. A challenge was issued to pit the crew of the film
against the Maltese team from the Marsa Sports & Country Club. A assumed by
bringing in his cousins B and C as ringers it would be no contest. The rest of the Xs on
the team included A’s dad, Alex, his brother, Terry, and of course our dear friend
Dave .
 Also recruited for the game were wicket-keeper Robin Demetriou, David Kent-
Watson and old family friend Steve Wilkins. Wally Glynn, the oldest active
international player in the world at 69, was retained as official umpire in the
deathless contest.

years. But the delivery has recently been re-invented by
Saqlain Mushtaq and he occasionally used it. He has
stated that the X is still a work in progress and that he
wants to hone the delivery so that the batsman become

spin and whether it will spin at all. Saeed Ajmal claimed
to have learned this art and has used it occasionally in
the 2011 World Cup and after that.

 The X ruling is a European Court of Justice ruling handed down on
May 8, 2003 in favour of Maroš X, a Slovak handball player. It
declared that citizens of certain countries which have signed
agreements with the European Union, have the same right to
freedom of work and movement within the EU as EU citizens. Thus
any restrictions placed on their right to work (such as quotas setting
maximum numbers of such foreign players in sports teams) are
deemed illegal under EU law. The legal actions in Germany set a
precedent for professional sports in Europe, which have had a wide-
ranging effect, especially in regard to English county cricket and
European professional rugby.
 Since then, lots of cricketers have migrated to Europe and found
success there. Give me X.

 He played county cricket for 13 years as an overseas player for
Gloucestershire and led them to great success. Fans even jokingly
renamed the team ____________. His whirlwind, chest-on pace bowling
lifted Gloucestershire from the unfashionable depths of the county
championship to second in 1969 as he blasted his way to over a
hundred wickets. He destroyed Worcestershire single handedly in 1977,
scoring a century before lunch and taking 13 wickets for just 73 runs.
 "I never really bothered much about averages, I was more concerned
with how the team did, so to never lose a big game at Lord's was a
highlight, plus there was winning all the Super Tests in Australia during
World Series Cricket and all those Currie Cups with Natal," X told Cricinfo
"And, of course, winning all those Test matches in South Africa against
the Aussies.“-X
