If he is fit his is one of the first names on any England one-day team sheet these days.

Flintoff's match-winning potential was evident from a young age; hence England's perseverance with him through some lean times.

He did finally start to deliver during 2001-02, but injuries have since set him back considerably.

With the shambolic episode of last season's hernia operation behind him, this big-hearted, big-hitting and fast-paced all-rounder can truly shine.

Missed the Ashes series after that operation, but has been working hard to get fit for this tournament.

Deceptively nippy with the ball, and has match-winning ability with the bat.

Genuine all-rounder if he can harness all of that potential.
