    All are current Aussie internationals being allowed to play in their domestic 50 over comp?
    Absolutely spot on - in fact, all 25 played today including their current white ball captain, Mitchell Marsh, fresh from last week scoring an international ton for Australia. Many will return to play for their clubs too.

    How many England internationals played in our domestic 50 over competition?   
    Burns foakes and sibley all made 1 or 2 appearances but aren't exactly current internationals.
    And will never play a white ball international again. At least half of those Aussies will do so. 
    Could make 2 good 50 over sides from that list of Aussie players. 

    I did see Northants have signed Nathan McSweeney to an all formats overseas deal for next season which will be interesting.

    The connection is, of course, Northants current coach Darren Lehmann. McSweeney plays for South Australia, (at Glenelg CC, the same club as Alex Carey) where the Darren Lehmann Cricket Academy is based.

    The eventual match winner, De Klerk went 6, 6, 4 with three balls of the third last over to go at which point the Indian keeper, Gaud, went down, with no one near, as if she had been poleaxed by a centre half whilst the Ref wasn't looking. We then had to have a five minute break for the physio to come one. I just hope she's alright.

    How many England internationals played in our domestic 50 over competition and what's our ODI record in the last four years compare to that of Australia especially in World Cups?   
    I don't think any of the England squad ahead of the 2023 World Cup played domestic 50-over cricket in England.  Although it's arguable as to whether it would have been of much benefit to play in England ahead of a World Cup in India.  

    Likewise, for Australia, none of the 2023 World Cup squad members played a single domestic 50-over match in the 2023-24 Marsh Cup before (or during) the World Cup.
