Mahmood took wickets in Australia, Plunkett has took important wickets - both are the future of England pace bowling, had Flintoff been abandened after his worse start, then England would not have won the Ashes in 2005.

Neither Lee nor Tait are all that accurate, but they are effective bowlers o not team has ever been grair just playing medium pacers.

Example Match winners.

Lilee - Thompson

Marshall - Holding

Walsh - Ambrose

Williss - Botham

Trueman - Statham

Harmison/ Flintoff/Jones

H Larwood.
