With such an impressive international policy, why do they play under the banner of, "England"? That might lead someone to think that the team contains Englishmen who grew up playing cricket in the English cricket institution.
They should follow the lead of the other ridiculous cricket teams in the 20/20 with names like the Deccan Chargers; a team full of highly paid international players who have no doubt had no prior connection to Deccan and probably never will.
Why don't England change their test cricket name to, "The Elephants"? Still retain the E at the start of their name for nostalgic reasons and may even make their South African players a little more at home with the local fauna of their homeland.
