see that the English Cricket Board will hold a press conference this afternoon. Word on the street is that they’ll most propably announce:
1. the retirement of strauss
2. the re-introduction of kp into the england setup?
..
if strauss do retire, this will be gsmit’s 3rd tour of england as test captain and the 3rd england test captain getting the chop after the series is done and dusted. is this some kind of record? anyone?

@ maljan_vaaljan_dieboksupporter!:
I think it is a record, I read that it was in one of the UK newspapers, but maybe we have some statistics guys here who could confirm that?

@ Baaiekatte-Jan:It is so, Nasser Hussain was first, then Michael Vaughn, and now Strauss. Graeme Smith, the hitman!!!
