England will have to seriously reevaluate a couple of things. First of all Michael Vaughan's position in the team, if he isnt going to be scoring runs, then he is a liability who is always putting his team under pressure. Second of all, this English bowling attack is weak, Anderson, Sidebottom will pick up the odd wicket or two but are they good enough to blast a side like SA out, can they sustain the pressure on a long term basis. I think England missed a trick by not playing Harmison as Sidebottom was injured before the match and was out of rhythem before this game. Finally Monty Panesar, well i cant believe Pakistan made him look like a world class spineer, the SA have feasted on his bowling.
The return of Freddie has been good for England but they arent Firing as a unit. Inconsistent batting, Flintoff's poor batting form is a huge concern. There is something missing in the side, that something special, they need some impact players. This England team isnt bad but they just arent as good as SA at the moment.
