“It Would Be Nice To Get Involved In That” – Liam Plunkett Keen On Playing With USA Team

The England Cricketer Liam Plunkett has said that he will not have any issues playing for the USA cricket team in the coming future.

Liam Plunkett did not get a call to resume training

Plunkett played a significant role in England’s squad that won the 2019 World Cup. He helped England get the edge by taking 3 wickets against New Zealand in the finals. Unfortunately, he is not one of the 55 players are to resume their training.

On the other hand, Liam Plunkett’s wife is an American citizen and he has often expressed that he will not have a problem settling over there.

“It would be nice be involved in some sort of cricket over there. My kids might be American, so it would be quite cool to say to them that I played for England and the US.“

The England pacer looks forward to playing in the USA team

USA acquired the ODI status and the country is actively searching for talents to put together a national squad. However, if Plunkett wants to play for the team he will need to be a resident for three years first.

According to the pacer, he believes that if he does get an opportunity to play, he will take it. It will be a good thing to be a part of USA cricket after playing with the England team.

“If I go over there and end up being a US citizen, or have a green card, I can help the development, especially being someone who has just finished with England. It would be nice to get involved in that.”

Finally, Plunkett said that he is over the fact that they didn’t pick him. He still considers himself to be in top form and can still play competitive cricket.

“I feel like I’ve got over not being picked now and I’m in a different place. What they said to me over the winter – after I found out online that I wasn’t in the South Africa squad – was that they were going down a different route, a younger route.”

”I still consider myself to be in the best one-day team in the country. I feel like I could still play.”
