Brothers in Arms

[Supershtuffthat]

Its pretty amazing how birds of a feather flock together hey - what I mean is that there are always so many brothers in international teams:

Current:

Mike and Dave Hussey
Brendan and Nathan McCullum
Umar and Kamran Akmal
Albie and Morne Morkel
The two Jayawardene brothers from Sri Lanka
Shaun and Mitch Marsh
Brett and Shane Lee
Ifran and Yuvraj Pathan

Past:

Steve and Mark Waugh - they also had another brother who played for NSW

Can anyone think of some more?

 

[Max Peters]

I'm pretty sure Mahela Jayawardene and Prasanna Jayawardene are not related.

 

[Biggy]

I would say Brett and Shane Lee are of the past, and Shaun and Mitchell Marsh are of the future.

Biggy added 9 Minutes and 31 Seconds later...

List of Test or One-day International cricket families

Chappell brothers, Flower brothers, Marshall brothers, the list goes on and on.

That Cowdrey line of crickters is likely to have a few more names added to it, one guy my age is currently in the Kent Academy.

 

[Gurjot95]

Ifran and Yuvraj Pathan

who?

 

[Varun]

Mahela and Prassana Jayawardene are not brothers.

 

[Owzat]

Robin and Chris Smith both played for Hampshire at the same time, but not for England

Graeme and Alec Swann both played for Northants at the same time, I think Alec must have quit cricket a few years back

 

[Biggy]

who?

Yuvraj Pathan, now there is a player destined to fail.

 

[IanG]

who?

I'm sure he means Yusuf Pathan

 

[McLOVIN]

Flower brothers
Bravo brothers

Perhaps that's proof that talent is genetic....
