KP Nuts?!!!

With the sporting action being dominated by the Olympics in London, and not forgetting the Euros in Poland and Ukraine, some may have overlooked that this summer a major contest in Test cricket between England and South Africa. England headed into the three match series ranked as number one, and their visitors South Africa were hot on their heels knowing that if they won the series they would replace England as Test cricket's top outfit. On a side note, what a shocking decision to only have three matches between two of the game’s top teams!  

Nevertheless, what we had was an intriguing contest deservedly won by South Africa. But away from the stumps, for the third successive time South Africa and their captain Graeme Smith, would tour England and the English Test captain would leave his post. However, Andrew Strauss would not leave without some sort of storm involving him, his former charges, and a certain Kevin Pietersen.
