LONDON, Apr 3 (AFP): Sydney-born Sam Robson insisted Wednesday he has no qualms declaring his allegiance to England, having spent the past six years playing for Middlesex.
The 24-year-old batsman has yet to make his full international debut but will look to force his way into an unsettled England Test side, still trying to bounce back from an Ashes whitewash, after impressing on recent second-string tours of Australia and Sri Lanka.
Robson struck five hundreds in six matches during those trips and knows continued weight of runs for Lord's-based Middlesex-whose coach, Angus Fraser, is now also an England selector-will keep his name in consideration ahead of home series against Sri Lanka and India in June and July respectively.
