A substitute fielder does not get a cap at cricket.
ergo, posturing that there was a Scottish influence on the English cricket team is irrelevant
Still, I got to check Trott's wiki bio.

What kind of game can have people who play as irrelevant? Like saying a sub at football doesn't get a cap for coming on.
in test matches sub fielders on the travelling team are drawn from the squad sub fielders on the home team however are not squad players, they used to be but that stopped some time ago. they are now kids from whichever ground the match is being played at given a bit of experience of being around the test team. you could have 3 or 4 of them on at once on a 5th day if the result isn't in doubt and you're resting a few niggling injuries. they are completely irrelevant, can't bowl, don't think they can keep wicket and their name isn't recorded if they're involved in taking a wicket

Scottish lower leagues often have "A Triallist" scoring in league games.

Scottish lower leagues often have "A Triallist" scoring in league games. Jeff Stelling on Soccer Saturday often questions why this guy never gets a transfer to an SPL club as he tends to score a lot of goals.

So if he'd caught someone out would he have got a cap?
it would be listed on the scorecard as- c sub if there was more than 1 sub on the field at the time you wouldn't even know which one it was

Presume it is injury news, Freddie struggled in the nets today. Whereas the Aussies could well have Haddin and Lee fit for the game. Possibly the forecast has improved as well?

I live in Headingley, sure am going to the games tho.
Went down to the bars/pubs area earlier to go to Laddies and there were thousands of Aussies there, pretty comedy.
Think the forecast now is ok for next 3 days but bad on Mon & Tues.
