A load of old Kolpaks
Former Kent captain David Fulton, writing in The Times, argues that the counties are failing the country when it comes to Kolpak players.
Kolpaks are signed because they are relatively cheap and counties know they will be able to do a job. They are plucked off the shelf without the need for years of investment. “So what if they come with a “made in South Africa or Australia” tag, they’re eligible to play and there’s nothing anyone can do about it,” seems to be the attitude, although county spokesmen will dress it up differently.
