Sadly, I agree. You can see he’s lining up a media career (which he’ll be good at). He’s the sort of bloke who won’t retire mid Ashes out of respect for the team but wouldn’t be surprised if he does at end of season. Hope I’m wrong but I think he may have made the decision already. Overused...
I went to Cape Town a few years ago (the day stokes got a double hundred). 30 degrees, tickets quite cheap, beer is about a quid, table mountain in the background. For anyone considering it I would say 100% go - my best holiday ever.
