Giles Clarke is probably accustomed to the flak. He might or might not have expected or deserved the criticism directed at him in the past few days when the deal he struck on behalf of the England and Wales Cricket Board with Sir Allen Stanford appeared to be unravelling.

Giles Clarke was entirely taken aback when he first heard the suggestion that Sir Allen Stanford wanted to re-evaluate his five-year investment in Twenty20 cricket in the West Indies and England.
