Times of India article about Flintoff
Today's (8th December) Times of India reported about a discussion between Flintoff and Fletcher whether Panesar should've played in the second Test. Fletcher wanted Panesar and Mahmood to replace Giles and Anderson but Flintoff had the final say and we all now the outcome. Just thought you'd like to know.

Flintoff seems to be getting all the blame with rumour mongering - full story click here .

I don't know for 100% - but I can't see Fletcher being browbeaten by anyone, he is far senior to Flintoff, except on the field.

This is silly them all blaming each other for the team they selected. They should have all said that they chose the best team that they thought would give them the best shot at winning the ashes and all stuck together instead of pointing the finger at each other.
