I'm predicting Rankin will get dropped from England squad within 6 months , and he will back back to playing for Ireland by 2015 WC.
Rankin is a rare player though since he's very tall and bowls fast. He stands at about 6' 7." Tall bowlers can extract lots of bounce even on flat tracks due to their height. Obviously that doesn't mean he'll be a star because of this but he has the elements to be a very good fast bowler for England.
