The England batsman was new to the side, and in his first innings he did so badly that the Trent Bridge crowd began to slow hand-clap and barrack him.

Things got worse. The language got more and more abusive, his play-more inept, and finally he was out.

As he dashed for the pavilion, rotten fruit and eggs were thrown at him, but he managed to gain the- safety of the dressing-room, where Andrew Strauss was waiting for him.

'Blimey!' panted the batsman, 'they don't like that umpire, Marais Erasmus, here in Nottingham do they?'
