England Hopes Flintoff Is Fit
Andy Flower, England Cricket Coach, is hoping for star Andrew Flintoff to be fit to play in the fourth ashes. It takes place in Headingley on Friday and they are hoping for a win.
Flintoff has had to heavily rely on injections in his right knee in the past two Tests. He lokoed like he was struggling on the third at Edgbaston.
"He is determined to play but he and the experts can make a considered decision," said flowers.
England is winning the series 1-0 and is set to name the squad today at 2 o'clock. Flintoff cricket bags are specially designed by Woodworm. Flintoff will most likely be in the draw but with only three days between Monday's drawn contest at Edgbaston and the penultimate match of the campaign at Headingley he will be spending a lot of time resting.
Flintoff was England's match winner at Lord's which gave us the advantage of the series. And now England team looks forward for series win with fourth test win. If they can win that match then lead 2-0 with separate one test match and there they can't loose series ...
... means ashes win for British and can make history. Flintoff use Woodworm cricket shoes. Flintoff will surely want this and also want sure win through his effort. Current status says Flintoff will not play and this surely not good for England team because of Peterson is already out in the team and it was big problem. We hope Flintoff will fit before the match and win ashes for England before his retirement.
Flintoff bowled only 11 overs and none in the final session and laboured somewhat in the field.
However, England captain Andrew Strauss said he was "optimistic" Flintoff would be available for Headingley.
"There is obviously some soreness there but I don't think there's anything that has deteriorated massively over the course of the game," stated Strauss.
"He needs to rest up well because back-to-back Tests are hard for any bowlers and we'll see how he is on Thursday.
"We want to play our best team in every game we play but we've got to be conscious that if he's not fit enough to do his job then he won't play. We've had to play without him plenty of times over the last two years so it wouldn't be anything new to us.
"Generally the bowlers have stepped up when he hasn't played but at the moment he's in great nick with both cricket balls and bats so we don't want to play without him, if we can help it."
