England cricket team for Ashes 2006- An injury risk

The England cricket team for the Ashes cricket series 2006 has been criticized by quite a few former English cricketers such as Naseer Hussain. The England cricket team for the Ashes test series against Australia includes players such as Harmison who is struggling with a serious injury.

While one appreciates the bravado of the England cricket team for the Ashes, this is undoubtedly a huge risk considering that the Ashes cricket series is of three months duration.

The England team for the Ashes,2006- Harmison's bravado or is he foolhardy?

Many players of this England cricket team for the Ashes has spoken of using painkillers to declare themselves fit for the Ashes cricket series,but,this really doesnt give the England supporters much confidence. After all, its better to have eleven fit England cricket team players for the Ashes series rather than a team where the final playing eleven of every test match depends on the fitness test on the eve of the Ashes cricket test match

The England cricket team relies too much on Flintoff for the Ashes,2006 cricket series

Flintoff is the key batsman,bowler and captain for the England cricket team for the Ashes,2006 cricket series! Thats too much responsibility on one single player in the England cricket team.

Flintoff's fitness is again under question- but there is really no one in the England cricket team for the Ashes who can match his talent, aggressiveness and confidence. If the England cricket team are to do well in the Ashes cricket series in Australia,they need other players such as Harmison and Pieterson,who were the heroes of the last Ashes cricket series, to play exceptionally well
