Dodgy rumours about Flintoff’s knee

Dodgy rumors, hey! Prior to Flintoff’s exclusion from the 4th Test in the npower ashes series, his dodgy knee was linked to rumours of cortisone injections.

Apparently, those rumours were woefully inaccurate.

According to the ECB medical team, “ in order to give Flintoff a chance of playing in the second and third Test matches, he received a series of artificial synovial fluid injections into the knee joint and cortisone injections into some of the bursa on the outside of the knee joint to help settle the inflammation.

Now that we know what went into Andrew Flintoff , we await the ECB team’s report on his exclusion.
