WATCH | Aussie cricketers can't pronounce 'Labuschagne'

Cape Town - South African-born Marnus Labuschagne is making a name for himself in international cricket, having posted back-to-back 50s in his first two Ashes knocks.

Over those last two innings, it has been rather comical listening to the English and Australian commentators attempting to pronounce his surname - which sounds nothing like the way South Africans would pronounce it.  

The guys and girls over at Cricket.com.au, in a video posted on their YouTube page, put Labuschagne's own team-mates to the test ... and even they failed!
