Only Flintoff can help England beat Australia, says Mark Waugh
By ANISunday, May 24, 2009
LONDON - Former Australian batting great Mark Waugh has warned England that only Andrew Flintoff can prevent them from an embarrassing Ashes thumping.
All-rounder Freddie was inspirational as Michael Vaughan’s men won the old urn back in 2005.
“England don’t have a bad squad but they really need Flintoff firing if they are to have a winning chance against the Aussies. England has done well in their recent two Tests but I don’t think the West Indies could beat a club side. Their batting and attitude were dreadful,” the News of The World quoted Waugh, as saying.
“We just beat South Africa and I don’t think England would have done that. Our pace attack is very good and we might not have the Warnes or McGraths but we’re still a solid squad.” (ANI)
