Whether captain or not, Andrew Flintoff is the first name on the England team sheet.

With many of England's inexperienced pacemen struggling to control the new white ball, Flintoff could find himself leading the attack, but is adept at any stage of the innings, as his 12 wickets in the CB series proved.

England will look for performances similar to the Champions Trophy against Sri Lanka in 2004, when he fired three sixes in 104 from 91 balls and claimed 2-21.
