But Duan might never have made it this far.
He played for North West from January 2019 to February 2025, going nowhere slowly for much of that time.
Not least because he twice broke a foot.
Marco won his first 13 Test caps during this period, taking three five-wicket hauls and scoring three half-centuries including a solid 84 not out on debut.
Small wonder, perhaps, that Duan considered walking away from the game.
