Is there a rift in the England camp?

Robert Craddock writes in the Courier-Mail about a “major rift” forming in the England camp.

Duncan Fletcher is privately fuming at being held accountable for omitting Panesar from the Adelaide Test, a match where England's No. 1 spinner Ashley Giles took just 2-149 to leave his career hanging by a thread.

The Courier-Mail has learned that at team selection meetings in Adelaide, Fletcher leaned toward Panesar to play in the Test but captain Andrew Flintoff went for his Lancashire team-mate, swing bowler Jimmy Anderson.
