Major Announcement Tommorrow
« on: May 04, 2011, 04:30:53 PM »
My journalist friend called me just now to tell me to expect a Major announcement tommorrow at Lords around 11ish regarding the England Captaincy.

Cook ODI captain? Or even KP?

He works backroom for the daily mail, nothing major but always good for gossip!

This is ridiculous - why is Strauss going (which I assume is the news)? He's one of our better ODI batters,and there really isn't a credible alternative - KP? I hope not, he's a complete dil in front of the press, and wants to give up ODI's anyway.

We had a sh*t WC - not Straussy's fault, blame the whole squad and the selectors, plus the fatigue in key players.

Nonsense!

How can they give the captaincy to someone who isn't even a ODI regular ?

Because to be fair, he is in the top 2 opening batsmen in the country, shorter form as well as the longer form.

Strauss to carry on ODI, who cares about 20/20, does it make much odds?

I think they should quit moaning about too much cricket, it's a dream job!
Id never complain, especially in county cricket because they get 6 months off

They knew there would be long tours, I'm sure there is plenty of other career choices if they don't like it

I think it's more the time away from your family more than the workload as that can be a lot to bear not seeing your kids for 4 months at a time
