Which is what I said all along. And makes the ECB look even worse than ever. The whole Graves ultimatum, score runs in CC, was a sad and unworthy provocation.

AC will race towards his next thousand posts on the back of this score. :D
Work expands to fill the time available, so why do today what can be put off until tomorrow.

Strauss will have fallen at the first hurdle if he goes down that road. Why is it so bloody hard for England to realise they should just keep quiet and back the lads they have picked to not give KP an opening.

If they close the door on him the press will slaughter Strauss.

I would be delighted to see Strauss have enough common sense to just not talk about KP.

Picking him is simply a win win situation in my belief. He fails, its the end of the story.... he succeeds, then the team benefit
