BBC Sport Online's Thrasy Petropoulos assesses their individual performances.

Went from the sublime - 69 and 137 in the space of two days against Australia and Pakistan - to the deeply disappointing - 0 and 0 in his last two innings of the series.

England's most consistent batsman, twice he held the innings together as wickets tumbled. But only once (84 against Australia at Bristol) did he resemble the free-scoring force that gives England an edge.

In three disappointing innings - top score 12 - he did not remotely resemble to powerful hitter who so dominates for Surrey. His dismissal to Brett Lee, fending a short ball to gully, suggests technical flaws.

Endured a miserable four games - top score five - and handed the Australians a huge psychological advantage when he was bowled first ball by Jason Gillespie at Edgbaston.

Made an encouraging start to international cricket, not least in displaying an steely temperament. Arrived at 26 for three in his second match, against Pakistan, and scored 62.

Out of his depth with bat and ball, he failed to reach double-figures and went wicketless in four matches. Will return to Durham fearful that he has played his last international.

Overall, made a good impression in his return to international cricket. His bowling looked na�ve - he did not take a wicket in six matches - but three times he made important runs down the order, including 53 out of 156 all out against Pakistan.

His inclination to attack with the ball is more suited to Test than one-day cricket and he took six costly wickets. Made no real impression with the bat. Not a happy return.

This might be the end of the road for a one-day specialist who made his name as an economical bowler and, potentially, an important run-gatherer in the latter overs. He did neither in three matches.

Warmed up nicely for the serious business of the summer. Only once in six matches did he go wicketless, becoming England's leading one-day wicket-taker in the process. His 40 not out at Headingley was his first significant contribution with the bat for five years.

Did a job without ever looking like the force he usually is. Primarily a defensive bowler in one-day cricket, he leaked too many runs for his - or England's - liking. Still a vital cog in England's one-day wheel.

Expensive by his standards but proved a reliable first-change bowler. Operated with little luck and demonstrated that he has fully recovered from the rib injury that restricted his appearances last summer.

Given just two matches and bowled tidily enough in the final game at The Oval. But he will almost certainly find himself excluded once Ashley Giles returns to full fitness.
