London, Oct. 24 : Off-spinner Graeme Swann has said that he will lead England''s tweet nothings in South Africa this winter.

According to The Mirror, England bosses briefly considered banning tweets, but Swann, whose Twitter duel with team-mate Jimmy Anderson has become the stuff of legend in the dressing room, last night revealed the censors had spared him.

Ashes hero Swann said: "There wasn''t a fall-out from that episode as such but someone did have a word with Bres and advised him that having a go at a stranger using expletives wasn''t the best way forward.

"Putting electronic gadgets in the hands of a Yorkshire fast bowler is never a good combination, but you are expected to use them with a level of intelligence," he added. (ANI)
