Accept it or not bowlers create magic and the interest in the game !!! What beautiful spells !

Lots of these wickets are with an old ball that starts to reverse. It’s such an exciting passage of play when that happens.

No player before and after can reach the mighty majestic class of Andrew Flintoff in the English squad ever. He is the spice we add to our dish that gives it life.

When it comes to test cricket English crowd is the best. In the England tour of Sri Lanka in 2018 , English tourists who visited here filled up the stadiums. They came to watch all three test matches. In 2020, There was this one guy who visited here to watch his team playing but he wasn't allowed to come to the stadium because of COVID - 19 stuff. So he watched the two test matches from the Gall fort.

some of Flintoff's over's are right up there with the best ever bowled.
