Yes I do complain about the England top 6, and IMO quite rightly so.
I do get your point that if Flintoff has not yet regained his batting form which will only come with time at the wicket - he may well have to bat at 7 for a while, better that than miss out on his superior bowling.
Better than the FF suggestion that a bowling all rounder needs to be scoring like a top order batsman to get in the side - that's what makes no sense IMHO.
