I’m somewhat disappointed.

I’m just waiting for Swann to come back with a ‘So’s your mum’.

Surrey’s director of cricket is called Archie Pelago.

We’ve already given you the option of travelling two minutes forward in time to steal other people’s jokes. What more do you want?

I quite like the notion that Surrey is akin to one of the Gulag camps. I am eagerly rolling with your analogy that far.

But I see little/no evidence of airbrushing or actual purging.

A petulant comment about a “so-called friend” is more like the back chat of a schoolboy, not the captain of the England cricket team. Still, we know that Cook is neither a natural captain nor a natural spokesman. Move on!

For the one day game, the issue in my view (more interestingly) is whether Cook should be in the team at all. His test record is exceptional, albeit with poor recent form. But his ODI track record is merely OK, not exceptional.

I’ll take care to avoid the pointy ends of any umbrellas when I’m walking around London today.

Oh, two minutes.

GIVE US AN EDIT OPTION, KC.
