As England head off to the Caribbean for three Tests, five ODIs and three T20 Internationals, Peter Miller recalls the 13 Caribbean-born players who have turned out for England.
The list includes a one-cap wonder, unfulfilled potential, an England captain, the first black cricketer to represent England, and two tragic tales of players passing away before their time.
With Barbados-born Jofra Archer about to qualify to play for England, there could be a 14th man added to this list in 2019.

The most recent addition to the list of Caribbean-born England players is Chris Jordan, who was born in Barbados but came to England when he won a scholarship to Dulwich College. Now a mainstay of England’s T20I team, Jordan has also played eight Tests but is currently utilised as a white-ball specialist at international level. Jordan is also capable of some brutal lower-order batting and is one of the best fielders in the game.
