Broad is a far better bowler than flintoff was at the same age. However Freddie was a superior batter at the same age.

Broad IMO will become a worldie with the next 18-24 months.

Flintoff's bowling developed in a way few that could not have been expected. Broad won't get close to him, but he'll be very good.

Because his cricket knowledge is encyclopedic and he knows everything.

Flintoff is not good enough as a batsman to play any lower than 8. His bowling at test level is not penetrating enough and he does not take enough wickets. His body is no longer strong enough to survive a 5 day test match let alone a 5 match series.

He's an excellent ODI bowler, unfortunately nothing else anymore and harking back to 2004-2005 is as pathetic as saying Lee is still as good as he was. Injury and age mean he's finished.

Shall i start a new thread as we're into a lot of cricket this summer?.
