Alex MartinCoach, England

to play international cricket you will need to be very very good at cricket and know nearly everything that you would need to know about cricket to be able to play,

you need to be very fit and healthy and at 22 there are some people who are already getting worse from playing for too long so i wouldn`t think about it unless you are playing nearly every game for a county team in county championships
