Adil Rashid was born in Bradford.

Sam Curran was born in Northampton.

What is the problem with football but not cricket for England?

We're the only nation in the world to have won world cups in all major sports.

Despite being around 25th in world population rankings.
Questions you need to be asking are what is the problem with china, india, usa, indonesia, pakistan etc

What's your criteria for a sport to be considered 'major'?

most popular or most watched. Whatever you wish really.Or sports that are played across the world.
So for example NFL, baseball dont really count.

Major teams sports England have won rugby, football, cricket.

Major individual sports England have won F1, Golf opens, Snooker, Table Tennis.

It's only really basketball that we're no good in.

Snooker

Boxing would have been better and now MMA.

Aunt Sally?

We're pretty good at that!

The number of people who watch or play a specific sport can be very difficult to establish, that's why I asked.

It stands to reason that England or the UK would have played a prominent role in the most popular sports, because most of them were codified and spread during the days of the British Empire.
