You are so wrong, we picked KP instead of Thorpe in 2005! He turned out rubbish so the ECB were absolutely vindicated.

That was nearly 10 years ago haha! I do partially agree with Stuey on this - Steve Smith would never have been given the chances he has if he was English (I still remember the year he played for Worcs, half the fans wanted him sent back!)

If I recall correctly Thorpe had back issues which made the selection easier,plus he was retiring at the end of the series.  Fletchers era was more of an exception, he plucked players like Vaughan and Trescothick from obscurity really. I don't see the current selectors making such brave calls.

Personally not too sure how he'll go against the extra pace and bounce of the Aussie wickets/bowlers, will be interesting to see how he stands up to it.

Interesting to hear from gilly that flintoff has borrowed one of his bats. Would have thought he would borrow one of his team mates

I watched stokes innings last night, what a great knock. When you see him play like that, you wonder how England are managing to mess up his selection. With his ability they should be building the team around him! Got to be KP's replacement, people will state stats as to why he shouldn't replace KP (over somebody else), but  for me stokes has serious destructive ability with the bat and can be a 4th/5th seamer. Get him in the team.

Flintoff out for 7 to a pretty good catch

Wish Sky would also show the interval and analysis from the channel 10 commentators. Harmison is so dull and boring, not a clue about t20. Rather hear gilly and punter

I'd imagine Ayrtek haven't sent him down a lid in the Scorcher's livery yet.
