    First task is to watch the 80’s classic hit series the A-TEAM and see just how they managed to get Mr T ‘ i aint getting on no plane ‘ well on the plane and do the same to Marcus Trescothick.

    Second task find a wicket keeper who can bat……………..impossible, so what do you do simply chuck the gloves to Pieterson and force him to stand behind the stumps.

    Third and final task is to retire Flintoff to stud producing lot’s of little Flintoffs ensuring Englands future for years to come.

    My Team.

    Flintoff Jr

    Simon Jones to add extra pace and keep Andrew Hughes in the good books.

    Did anyone pick up what Collingwood said to Boucher whilst having a terrible time at the crease?
    He stammered something like ‘well, i expect you’ve seen worse players.’
    silence….
    Collingwood ‘ i said i expect you’ve seen worse players’
    Boucher ‘ i heard you the first time i was just trying to think.’
