Northern Irish cricketer
Boyd Rankin made his England debut during the T20 match against New Zealand at
the Oval yesterday. The Londonderry born bowler has played 52 times for Ireland but
decided to switch allegiances with the hope of representing England at test
cricket.
In his first over
Rankin claimed the wicket of New Zealand opener James Franklin, with Jos
Buttler claiming the catch. In the end he finished with figures of 1-24 off his
four overs. Rankin’s performance however was not enough to help England to
victory as they fell five runs short of New Zealand’s total of 201-4.
