"Mediocre Leicestershire player gets signed by Lancashire and disappoints" seems to happen stunningly regularly these days. I still can't believe that Buck made the Lions or the EPP or whatever it was.
Strauss I can't imagine would be to keen though.Some bloke called Pietersen batting well for Surrey - I wonder if the selectors will have a look at him, though it is division 2 I suppose
To be fair Kumar only managed 36 against them, Davies, Ansari, Roy and Burns who at times have been tipped for England honours also failed against them.As much as I admire Pietersen in getting to 200*, it must be remembered that this is against a Leicestershire attack, who are a long, long way off an Australian test attack.
