    Fair play to him!


    Andrew Flintoff has become England's highest rated Test bowler for the first time in his career.
    He has leapfrogged team-mates Matthew Hoggard and Steve Harmison into 10th place in the latest rankings.

    Simon Jones has also made a significant advance, improving 13 places to 22nd after picking up 13 wickets in three Tests so far in the Ashes series.

    Marcus Trescothick is England's highest ranked batsman in eighth place, with Andrew Strauss (14th) next best.

    You better believe it. I had the dubious pleasure of running into the England A team on the rip in Harare in early '99 :D
