The Australian selctors might have something to say about that. (But let's hope so all the same. First man to captain three losing Ashes teams in England!)

He's become the first man in over 100 years to do it twice, but nobody has yet managed the hat-trick.

Which is why I'm hoping he'll be back again in four years' time!

If he is back again in 4-years time then it will either show A) how poorly they've progressed to still have him in charge or B) how brilliantly he's been playing...lets hope it's A!!

Good start from England in Ireland too...both Bopara and Trott out for 0, recovered slightly 34-2 now, Denly and Prior 15 and 14 not out.
