Andrew Strauss Profile

Andrew John Strauss, MBE was born 2 March 1977, is an English cricketer who plays county cricket for Middlesex County Cricket Club and is captain of England. A fluent left-handed opening batsman, Strauss favours scoring off the back foot, mostly playing cut and pull shots. Strauss is also known for his fielding strength at slip or in the covers. On May 21, 2004, playing against New Zealand, Andrew Strauss wrote his name into the record-books when he became only the fourth batsman to score a century at Lord's on his Test debut. It was the culmination of a rapid rise to prominence for Strauss, who as captain of Middlesex, was at least on familiar territory for the big occasion. As a fluid and attractive left-hand opener, Strauss knew all about pressure and how to handle it. His stock rose exponentially in 2002 and 2003, following the unforeseen retirement of Middlesex's captain, Angus Fraser, who swapped his sweater for a laptop and took up the role of cricket correspondent for the Independent newspaper. Up to the start of the Ashes Strauss had dealt well with all challenges thrown at him in Tests, including South African's quality seam attack. But he had not faced a world-class spin bowler like Shane Warne, nor a bowler able to swing the ball into him at pace, like Brett Lee. Having played for the Durham University cricket team and the Middlesex second XI since 1996, Strauss made his Middlesex first XI debut in 1998, scoring 83 in his maiden first-class innings. Strauss' first taste of international cricket came as part of England's tour of the sub-continent, but he would only fulfill the role of the twelfth man; despite considering himself better in the long form of the game, Strauss was surprised to be selected for the One Day squad.
