Ashes - England v Australia - 2009

[Notebook]

Slightly over the top coverage here(Knighthood for Flintoff?), haven't seen the news-papers yet, should be more restrained...
Good atmosphere listening into it yesterday, I think I could here the cheers through my window!

Sir Flintoff, eh? Look what Botham had to do - this was no 1981, that's for sure.

I know the Ashes is over now, but here is a small update on Andrew Flintoff:

[Andrew Flintoff's agent, Andrew Chandler] queried the ECB's judgement in offering an incremental deal worth £25,000 per year, when his IPL contract alone is worth US$1.55million.

"There were one or two things in it that made it difficult to sign," Chandler told the BBC. "Like he wouldn't be allowed to participate in dangerous sports and he's possibly doing a television series in which he may do bungee-jumping. Also he's got three young kids and Andrew and his wife Rachel both spend reasonable amounts of cash so he has to make plenty.

Join the club Andrew... :rofl:

Got to make a bit of cash before he's too old.

Nice to see the Ashes helped England during the ODIs.

At least you kept up your run with the coin. Ponting only won two tosses out of 11 matches!
