Warne sticking up for Bangladesh
Just a local article from Australia. Good on Warne for sticking up for Bdesh and giving it back to Strauss. Hopefully we do give England a mighty fright and win.

Warne, speaking at Lord's on Monday, said Strauss's absence for next month's two-Test series, when England will be led by Alastair Cook, would cause trouble.
Strauss's placekin the team could be taken by Michael Carberry and, after helping the 29-year-old revive his career when captain of Hampshire, Warne said he would like nothing more than to see his former county colleague give the selectors a huge headache.
"I hope they are not taking Bangladesh too easy because they can be quite strong," Warne said.
"What if they (Bangladesh) win the first Test? Does Strauss fly out for the second?
"I hope it's not the start of a trend. It's a lack of respect for Test cricket.
