Flintoff ready for the top job

Richie Benaud, former Australian captain and a commentator, believes Flintoff is ready to become the full-time England captain now.

If Michael Vaughan's knee problems are long-term, then I wouldn't muck around — I would make Flintoff skipper straight away. I was made a Test captain out of the blue when I was 28. I didn't expect it — I wasn't even the Australian vice-captain at the time.
