Cricket has evolved a lot in 144 years and the game itself has gone through numerous changes over the years. The changes has not only been confined to the rules of the game but it has also got transpired to the cricketers. Globalization of cricket has allowed the cricketers to now represent any country they wish for provided they are eligible.

While some migrate to other countries for better career opportunities whereas others prolong their career by representing another country. On one hand, some players got lost to oblivion even after taking a switch, the career of few others blasted off to a new level.

Today, we will be talking about those players who have played ODI for 2 different countries.

• Ed Joyce too represented two nations in his career. He started of by playing 17 matches for England and switched to Ireland where he ended up playing 160 matches. Joyce represented Ireland at the World Cup and even led the Ireland team.

Eoin Morgan is probably the only player whose career progressed paramountly after switching his career. Morgan debuted for Ireland and represented them at the 2007 World Cup. He returned back to represent England in 2015 and 2019 World Cups and even led England to the 2019 World Cup title.

Boyd Rankin the Irish all-rounder had 3 stints for England and Ireland. He started from Ireland in 2007 moved to England in 2013 and returned back to Ireland in 2016 where he eventually retired.

Hayden Walsh: Hayden Walsh is a willy leg spinner and has impressed the West Indies team in the limited opportunities he got. He scalped 21 wickets in 13 matches. However not many know he debuted for the United States in 2019 and played 1 ODI for them.
