I loved Flintoff. He was such a character. Cricket was great back then. I mean look at these players KP, Andrew Strauss, Collingwood. It was bliss to watch them play against dominating Australian team. #goodolddays
Flintoff as all rounder was really fast maybe fastest bowler england produced & fastest all rounder world has seen. He didn't loose his pace throughout his carrier as well.
#CricketClassics yeah bro. First time I noticed that his all deliveries were clocked at more than 143kmph.i never noticed that fact. I guess he is fiercest allrounder to bestow the game... Legend in every sense🙌🙌
it was the oval on test 5 that was his official farewell, Flintoff was a virtual passenger for the remainder of that series but one final act when he threw down the stumps from mid off to trigger a collapse - when the opposition looked like they might have set a platform for a potential victory (albeit a remote one), but that act swung the momentum of the match much earlier than what called for and England won easily
Hearing Warnie talk while Phil Hughes is awaiting 3rd umpire decision. As an Australian that pulls on the heart strings after the Warnie news yesterday. RIP King
munsarim mohsin Just after seeing a video of 7 minute you have come to this conclusion. Well i wont complaint coz u r one of those who is following the game since 2015
Freddie, Anderson and Broad. They've been the best bowlers for England since then and now. Feel as though I will offend my OWN SELF, if I didn't give a shout out to Graeme Swan... Couldn't think of a 5th bowler
Lol that's a HUGE exaggeration and you know it. Rabada, Steyn, Philander and even Olivier are all far better than Flintoff. And that's just South Africa's fast bowlers. Imagine adding Pakistani, Indian, West Indian and Sri Lankan pacers in that mix. They are all better than Flintoff, too
@@rznotorious6103 Steyn, Rabada, Morkel, Anderson, Broad, Zaheer Khan, Johnson, Starc, Cummins, Boult, Southee, Stokes, Ngidi, Woakes, Archer, Alzarri Joseph, Bumrah etc. are all better than Flintoff! I don't see any xenophobic behavior there.
I remember watching this, and all the 2009 Ashes Tests, my last year living at home, I took every day of the cricket off work, it was a brilliant couple of months. Because I had one week where I worked mon-wed, then had 5 days off, then worked Tues-Fri, it was like a 7 week holiday.
A great cricketer but hardly the most stylish. Style = David Gower, Greg Chappel, Zaheer Abbass, Lawrence Rowe, Mark Waugh, Rahul Dravid, Damian Martyn, Martin Crowe, Kumar Sangakarra, Barry Richards.
No way mate flint off was amazing 👌 art Ben is so far behind he still need learn more in tense situation and convert crucial in winning situation miss friddie in fields exit too early 🤕
What a player was Andrew Flintoff! He was able to get wickets in test cricket. And was in this ashes match he took 5 wickets with passion and with great enthusiasm and with energetically! Wow! What a bowling was by Andrew Flintoff in This match ! His personality was inspirational because he was a tall all rounder in the England cricket team! 👍👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💪💪💪🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴!
I was at the match, the thing I remember most was seeing Marcus North batting against Freddy, he really didn’t fancy it. Freddy didn’t get his wicket but North never looked like making any runs after Freddy worked him over.
I just loved his attitude... Flamboyant... The way he played arrogantly... But still he could bowl 90mph in every other spell he bowled... today's bowlers are just overated... He is one of the best all-rounder I have seen till now after King Kallis...
Atleast for someone who started playing cricket since the nineties, there has not been an allrounder with as much presence as Fredie Flintoff..what a fantastic exciting talented allrounder, athletic pace bowler with 140+ kph speeds, swasbuckling batsman....On the given day to me he is even better than Jacques Kallis...He and Kevin Pietersen were my favourites while growing up..From India
Man, first time I noticed that he used to bowl consistently over 90kmph mark in all his spells!!now I feel that even starc and Cummins are overrated as in their later spells they barely cross that 140kmph mark, despite of them being bowlers. *Wow freedie u are legendary legend of legends*
Starc (has hit 160.4) and Cummins are not the same. And Flintoff was a "bowler", often the best in the English team. Hell, even the best batsman at times.
Huges was clearly not out as the ball was grounded. However you don't feel bad for the Aussies if you remember 2008 Sydney test between India and Australia where Clark and Ponting claimed two grounded catches and got Ganguly out among one. So I am happy to see Aussies got the taste of their own medicine here.
Every team should always have a genuinely fast aggressive bowler (90mph+) for when the ball isn't swinging or when a pitch is slow. England have always relied too much on medium/fast seam bowlers. Darren Gough, Devon Malcolm and Freddie Flintoff were always aggressive and fast and batsmen didn't like facing them!
Great bowling by one of the best All-rounder.. Why he retired so early. He has good fitness and bowling skills. According to me he'd have played at least 2 years more..
Just to give an idea of how good he's He used to replace Kallis (best all rounders cricket has ever seen ),from spot1 position to become no1 all rounder
I am intrigued by the commentary at 1:00 minute: A mini-masterclass. This made mention more or less regarding the faulty flaws in the execution of this shot. If this would have missed the fielder, the prose would be: "Slightly uppish, but a good shot." I could just imagine his uttering this.
Amzad Khan: Listen to the master-classy commentary: Why would the commentator delve so deeply and eloquently regarding the lack of proper technique in this shot, when, if the ball was struck a couple of feet adrift from the fielder, this would have rendered this shot perfect? My point is, this is how a faux master class is conducted. They are paid to find frivolous ways to fill the time.
To be very frank he technique is bit odd he was playing away from his body which is not a good thing in test matches. But still some do get success with flawed technique and if they play a good then the commentator has to complement them as well.
Nasser is the worst commentator on Sky, he drives me mad with the absolute nonsense he comes out with 90% of the time. He'll say something and then IMMEDIATELY contradict himself without any explanation.
Nadir Khan :- Kallis was great all rounder, but do you remember any match which Kallis won single hand. First try to understand what I said, don't talk like Stupid.
When i understand Cricket then i get three all-rounder kallis,flintoff, Afridi,,,... Really i never forget them and i get fully interest from that time...now i don’t see any one all-rounder.. Who is best than them....miss them
Definitely not out, technology proved it, but unfortunately it was before the review system came in, so unfortunately he had to walk, but I think 💭 that Strauss knew it touched the ground, and should have done the right thing, but unfortunately he didn’t.
The fifth wicket - 88mph off a shortened run, and he was coming off the physio's bench. What a player!
Didn't stop him missing as many test matches as he did
after a no-ball as well, I remember watching this live it was so special.
and low and behold all of the players have moved on, some moved on completely, and some in the box
I loved Flintoff. He was such a character. Cricket was great back then. I mean look at these players KP, Andrew Strauss, Collingwood. It was bliss to watch them play against dominating Australian team. #goodolddays
His rections are like , I do this for fun day in day out. Absolute showman.

One of the best all rounders to ever play the game- Andrew Flintoff.
Remember the name
vinay fernandes .
mm mm
Have u ever heard the name Jacques Kallis ?
Flintoff was an impact player.He scored runs and took wickets at crucial moments and thereby changing the result of the match.
Just a fraction behind Botham I thinks..
Manan Kaushik kallis did that over a whole career. Flintoff did it in only a handful of matches. he’s so overrated

basically youre there, and then in the sudden blink of an eye - youre not, thats life
May his soul rest in peace Philip Hughes
Love his bowling action what a player he was super Fredie Flintoff! 🙌🏴
If you compare that era from now, flintoff alone is better than 98 percent of the bowlers nowadays, exceptions few

Darren Gough, Devon Malcolm and Freddie Flintoff were always aggressive and fast and batsmen didn't like facing them!
True, but in my point of view the bowler should also be accurate like him without accuracy speed seems like useless .
Flintoff - total legend. Strauss's 'catch' was blatantly not-out though
Tim Young don't feel bad for Aussies they did the same to Indians in 2008 Sydney test.
And the 1st wicket was a no ball
As per the rule, if fingers are below the ball then it is out
The fingers weren't underneath the ball though.
@@Ganesh_nyk bullshit

Great bowling by one of the best All-rounder.. Why he retired so early. He has good fitness and bowling skills. According to me he'd have played at least 2 years more..

He used to replace Kallis (best all rounders cricket has ever seen ),from spot1 position to become no1 all rounder
And to top it the way he troubles Kallis in the famous over at Edgbaston. No one in my knowledge has troubled Kallis that much ever.
Although Razzaq was my favourite all rounder in that time but i knew that Flintoff was the best all rounder at that time
Both of them weren't best allrounder .Kallis played in that era too

Thats the point mate if u hit in gap its a good shot but if it goes in hand its a bad shot. Good shot account for connection and placement.
