Are you aware that Che is not a full-time starter for Warwickshire; he plays in the 2nd division.

Dude I have followed a number of Franklyn Stephenson students for years.
A couple years ago when Carlos Brathwaite captain the T20 team, it was fun listening to the Bajan-English from these guys.
Another of Franklyn student that is in England, is a Reifer.
I dont write about Bajan youngsters that I am not familiar with.

I am a Bajan; my daughter, who was born here, says she is Bajan.
Both Chris and Jacob are Bajans; having English citizenship will give them dual citizenship.
Don't fool your self with people on this board,

This link will show you the list of Jamaican-Canadian Olympians.

I always tell other we have no control where we were born that is beyond us but we have control over our nationality

It is good that you and your daughter identify as bajans on that premise, you are bajans in my book

Those guys maybe born here(salt excluded) but they actions scream English and in my book they are all English
