And it could be even worse if Flintoff has to go home because of his continued ankle problems. Vaughan to come back for the one day series and captain the side is almost a certainty. :hmm: He has had 3 or 4 innings with the England academy side in Perth and has not made a double figure score. Add to that the fact that in the one day game he has a less than spectatcular average and has as yet not scored an international one day hundred. And England's one day campaign prospects look even worse. Their most consistent one day performer and one of England's best two batsmen, Marcas Trescothick is back in England with a stress related illness that probably has ended his career. Add to that a man who was once the best bowler in the world at the top of the rankings, Steve Harmison who has retired from the one day game because he is scared of the white ball.

England should pull out of the one day comp on humanitarian grounds. :rotfl:
