'Why wouldn't you set yourself high standards?'

Tim Bresnan, England's latest allrounder has been on the winning side in all eight of his Tests and welcomes comparisons with a much-vaunted predecessor, Andrew Flintoff. He talks to Donald McRae in the Guardian.

"There's no point attacking anything in life and thinking I'll be average at this. That's a poor way of thinking. So you have to set yourself targets and strive to be as good as you can be. Freddie was definitely a game-changer and it would be very nice to be thought of in the same bracket as him," he says.
