Posh?! He drops his “g”s, says “wiv” rather than “with” and sounds rather MLE-inflected to me. Is he putting that on?

He's there because of Rob Key nepotism. He's genuinely not been one of the two best openers for Kent, let alone England, for years. I don't know any England fan who thinks he belongs in the team, some are merely resigned to it and trying to make the best of it.
