2 tests too late ,Fletcher lost the Ashes as soon as the first test team sheet was given to the Aussie dressing room .As much as I like Flintoff as a player he isn't strong enough to stand up to Fletcher off the field, the whole tour organisation has been shambolic
Agreed. The pressure put on Panesar by leaving him out of the first two tests is enormous - he's being portrayed as a saviour, which he isn't capable of being, hes just a good spinner.
RE: Agreed. I hope Panasar does well but the Aussies have been given the message that we came over to avoid defeat not win,you're right the pressure on Monty is enormous lets hope it doesn't break him
