Lunch with Andrew Strauss
The editor of the Financial Times, Lionel Barber, met the England captain Andrew Strauss for lunch in London and began with the question "Do you think we were lucky to win the Ashes?"
Strauss, 32, plays a straight bat. “No, not at all. It surprises me that people even say that. Cricket boils down to crucial periods of play. In a five-day Test match there will probably be two sessions that define which way the game goes. In three games, we won those crucial sessions.”
