Take on the mantle of the next Flintoff to Broad shoulders

There was something absolutely poignant about the timing. All summer long and for a few summers before that there had been the scolding question about life after Flintoff. It cased not that for half the time during Flintoff, the man himself was never there.
His gig at Lord's in the Second Test hardly aggravated the issue. Five wickets, bowling about on one leg, and victory against Australia at Lord's for the first time in three quarters of a century. Here was the combatant being a combatant and winning the match in a theatrical advertisement whose memory will allow.
And when he was left out at Leeds dropped would not be too greatest considering the embarrassing reaction from Flintoff's factor commenting on his charge's distress and England played like patsies, the topic had fresh rapport.
