[Collingwood] said. "He's always said that he doesn't enjoy Twenty20 cricket, probably because of the fact that he's never done that well in Twenty20 cricket.
"But his game is developing all the time. He was always good at Test cricket and has developed into a world-class one-day cricketer. I'm sure he'll be able to make the next step..."
Seems weird people champing at the bit to get Strauss to play T20, when 12 months ago they were moaning that he shouldnt be in the 50 over side.
T20 at international level is a jamboree game, hard to have a specialist team out when on an oversees tour. No problem with Strauss not wanting to play T20, if it means he can have a break from the treadmill, all the better
England probably a batsman light from their ideal T20 side (KP being out) - but pointless taking an extra batsman for 2 games. There is 16 men in the squad as it is
