Freddy becomes unfit again and Strauss will be back to being captain. So why not start with him.

yes i disagree...now, when the team has geld nicely under strauss's captaincy..there is no need 2 shift places...moreover strauss seems 2 have beter captaincy abilities...and he has a cool col head on his shhoulders...flintoff at times can lose his temper....strausss remains calm n composed...more importantly..captaincy has reallly blossomed strauss's batting..and he is happy 2 lad the side by example..flintoff is a phenomenol playr..and has both batting n bowling esponsibilities over his shoulders.....he needs to get rid of other tensions during the match...so that he can bowl better n bat better....without burden

Flintoff is a great all rounder he should be allowed to do his job of standing in the slip and also bowl well and bat better. He should not be given the over burden of the captaincy. This is going to bring a heat in the dressing room for Strauss wants to become captain and he has pulled out a 3-0 with Pakistan. All Flintoff could do was win against a useless Indian team and draw the series when they were not at the top of their mark. I think Strauss is the best choice for captain and Flintoff should work hard to become the best all rounder of all time.

I think it will be better to make Strauss the captain of the Englang team for the upcoming series as well as Ashes and let Flintoff play his natural game without any pressure.

I think Andrew Flintoff is a very good all-rouder but not a good captain they are putting too much presure on him.Andrew Strauss is the right man for Ashes.I'm not saying 'coz win.

I don't think it really matters who skippers the side, both have good idea's and most plans would have been set well before the start of the series but if i were being honest i think Freddie will get the best out of the bowlers and if we are going to keep the ashes we have to take 20 wkts in a match, my only worry would be if Freddie feels sore and cant bat, is he a good enough bat at the moment to get in the side without bowling???

I think Freddie is a phenomenal Playere but not a good captain. I think Strauss would be the best person to lead in England to the aussies

You can't make a decision like that based on the possibility of a player getting injured. You just have to go with the best man for the job - and I say it's Flintoff.

Andrew Flintoff is right man to captain

He got the job coz he's better at playing the media game, and doing the pr side of the job. They are both as capable on the field, and yeah, you're probably right, I am not too sure about Freddie's chances of lasting the whole tour without breaking down, especially if he is bowling as well as batting. We all know what hard Aussie pitches do to soft English knees....

Absolutely not. Andrew Plintoff should be appointed as Captain if he is fit
