Yesterday, Afghanistan bowled out Kenya for just 56 - the lowest score in a T20 international.

Strauss has said he doesn't want Hugh Morris' job. Though I'd like to think he wouldn't have been considered having continually stirred unrest in the England camp since retiring. Not to say he hasn't a right to do that, but it rules him out from being general manager of the England side, in my view. Hussain has said he doesn't want to do it. Not seen any other candidates.

Colly was asked, by someone in the press, if the job interested him.... he said it ought to be left to the posh boys

[Arthur Crabtree]

Colly's joined the Scotland backroom.

He's realised he quite likes the easy life in the commentary box. Watching cricket, long lunches, golf, fishing, wine tasting, great social life after play, overseas travel etc compared to sitting in an office with a inbox of problems to sort out.

It's a commentary box with Ian Botham though.

I bet you get a lot more money at Sky.

How many more Ex-England Captains and Nick Knight can they fit in there?

[Arthur Crabtree]

They should leave a gap for Colly. And ex skipper Vaughan is far better than anyone else they have except Athers.

[hopeforthebest]

Perhaps he's to be groomed as the posh guy to take over from 'Lord' Gower.

[Durhamfootman]

They should leave a gap for Colly.

Colly will be far too busy as head coach of Durham in a year or so.
