A role model for Strauss
The Guardian's David Foot wonders which former captain would be an ideal role model for Andrew Strauss.
Jardine happens to be one of the best. He had an austere, patrician manner and, as far as I could discover, went in for rib cages rather than too much laughter ... I advocate the Aussie-born, Somerset-reared Woods because, apart from being a good rough-and-ready captain he had life and humanity nicely in perspective. Like Jardine, he had no time for draws.
