England’s bowling attack at 2005 biennial event comprised of likes of former speedsters Andrew Flintoff, Simon Jones, Steve Harmison and Matw Hoggard.
Nasser Hussain said that he cant think of a better English attack than ir current one, which includes a collective tally of almost 1,100 wickets between James Anderson and Stuart Bro alone. He said that while 2005 Ashes attack comes close in a discussion, y “needed a bit of reverse swing”. Nasser Hussain later clarified his comments by saying that current pace arsenal is bowling at “conditions with reverse, a green outfield, lights on” while Michael Vaughan’s 2005 pace quartet bowled on “dry pitches on a dry summer with Andrew Flintoff and Simon Jones reversing it”.
