I've always thought it was played it so that guesses don't count as questions, it seems unfair to count them towards the 20 questions.
Sorry it was my bad typing that left off the end of guesses in the first post.

Clue: Despite being born in this country, he never represented this country, but another one.
The answer is : Flavian Aponso - The Sri Lankan born, Dutch batsman, made his international bow at the youthful age of 43. Playing in all 5 matches of Netherlands first World Cup in 1996, he opened at times and also bowled useful off spin. He made a highest score of 58 against Pakistan, and took one wicket against New Zealand. He also played 17 ICC Trophy matches, 16 First Class matches and 11 List A matches.

Nah there's nothing against that LF. Otherwise why would we always ask questions about whether or not they played Test cricket?

I'm sure i remember nightprowler said to make it someone who had played test cricket to make it actually possible too win,to be fair because there was Vcash involved.
