What would it mean to you to play for your country at the County Ground, Bristol? Playing for my country at the County Ground in Bristol would mean a great deal to me as I don't think I could ask for any more as a local boy who just wants to play cricket. I also think that my coaches, friends and family would be very, very proud.
