I have so much respect for Andrew Flintoff, what a fine player he is. Cynical me was thinking perhaps he was a flash in the pan in 2005, how wrong was I, this is a world class all-rounder who I am sure has earnt the respect of all.

Great to see us with two leggies, with our fast bowling stocks a little low, why not use the great Warney with MacGilla at the other end for this summer?

MacGill is world class and IMO would be a 500 test wicket player if not for a guy named Shane Warne. With both able to bowl long spells, it could be the way to go this summer freshening up the great McGrath with Watson and Lee.

46.6 Warne to Boucher, OUT: a bit quicker, a big ripper, pitching in the
rough just outside leg stump, the ball rears up, kisses the edge
and Hayden takes a good catch at slip!

defends, the ball spins past bat and hits the pad, loud shout for

Interesting that this is the first time this amazingly talented batting line up has reached 50 overs in 5 innings. Doesnt look good for Sth.Africa or the Windies!

[DeeGan]

2 world class leg spinners, 15 wickets in one test. What could of been on some of those english wickets.

Geez, MacGill loves a bowl at the SCG at test level doesn't he? lol Another 5 wicket haul, 9 wickets for the match...PLEASE SELECT THIS GUY TO BOWL IN TANDEM with Warney and we will not lose a test match this summer.
