Surprise, surprise, surprise

Even at 48 years old, I can still be surprised by England cricket.

I really believed they would sack Moores and retain Pietersen, in spite of not thinking it was the best move.

They sacked Moores, but Pietersen went, too. In the best of all possible worlds, I'd rather they had sacked Pietersen and gotten Moores to resign, but maybe Moores didn't see why he should go. In which case, I'd have done it like this, too.

Meanwhile, I'm pottering around with West Indian batting projections for the coming tour. Make sure you've linked to the RSS feed so you'll know when they are posted.
