Flower admits to Broad being inaccurate

Andy Flower, England's coach, has finally admitted that Broad must concentrate on becoming more accurate rather than bowl short-balls supposedly to soften the opposition and help his fellow bowlers pick the spoils of his "hard work".

There have been weeks or probably months or years of speculation regarding the role of Broad in the English team and finally Flower, in his typical candid manner, cleared up what his job is- to take wickets and for that he must concentrate on doing what every fast bowler is instructed to do from his very first day- "hit the top of off".

He also said the he didn't like the term "enforcer", but we don't know why.

This is as close as we would get the coach to admitting that Broad's place is under pressure and that a couple more slips and he may well be dropped.

Hope
This site has gone quiet again. I reckon it will pick up for the ODI's
What's 606v2 like?

posted on 24/8/11

606v2 has a similar but slightly easier layout to CMS. The articles are so often the same, a whole series about world XI's or who is the worlds best bowler/batsman, which bore me to tears.
I don't know where many posters from the old days have gone to.

Quite a few are on CMS.
You're not a fan of that site are you? The layout is weird at first but is easy to navigate through after a few days.
Talking of good posters.
Where's swamy?

They may visit CMS occasionally but when I have a look they are rarely to be seen.
I don't know, but didn't Swarmy say he was twittering.

where did swamy amanda or what ever his name was go?..I'd have love to have read his comments on what has taken place over the last month..

Shanky is everywhere with his best XI articles. Just been and had a looksee and saw Dilbert made an article but only posted one more time, no debating really.
Perhaps we are all out of new things to say and gloating over an England victory is not my style.

CMSers do have some good debates at times and there are some knowledgeable posters on there as well.
I'm sounding like shanky
