Harmison back to where it began

The first Test of the Wisden Trophy is in Jamiaca, the scene of Steve Harmison's greatest triumph - the 7 for 12 that destroyed West Indies five years ago. In the Times, Michael Atherton wants Harmison to watch the video of that spell, rejig the memory and get back to being the genuinely fast bowler that England need.

He might find looking at the tapes profitable because technically he was at his best then. He ran in hard and straight, stayed tall at the crease - arms reaching for the heavens as if in worship - held a firm rather than floppy wrist behind the ball and followed through with purpose.

Stephen Brenkley also relives that spell in the Independent, and says that Harmison has since gone on to become England's most exasperating bowler.
