Flintoff probably has a reputation as a batsmen that is bigger than his actual accomplishments in Odi's He averages only 33 in 119 innings. Shows lack of consistency.

Yuvraj's average is also not that great broadbat. They both are somewhat affected by batting lower in the order. I think now, they both will get to bat higher up. Of course you can quote Dhoni and Bevan as counterexamples.

Kapil Dev's ODI batting average is only 23.79!

[broadbat]

Agreed, but he has very few hundreds for a man who is supposed to be a good bat. Nothing to stop him from batting up the order but I think Eng realize that he can not do with the bat what Yuvraj is now doing for example. However with the ball he is something else.

Flintoff has been a bit all over the place

England will be hoping for something similar to what has happened with Sehwag ..a poor ODI player who has improved significantly of late.

[broadbat]

Has ha just going through the match thread and not one mention of the 'new look' Ishant, while some of the channels had an entire program on it.

[keep-it-cool]

I think the long hair gave him an aura ...but it must be getting quite hot under it ..esp in Delhi

[broadbat]

Well now I think Sehwag should be given a break from Game No 5 and then return to lead in Games 6 & 7 while Dhoni takes a break.
