At Their Best?

When I heard Michael Vaughan on the radio this morning saying that England (once again) 'weren't at their best' when flopping over the line against Bangladesh yesterday, my immediate reaction was 'well, what exactly is their best?'. Maybe, just maybe, this is it, in which case they're liable to find South Africa a bit of a
handful.

Somebody who would obviously improve their chances is Marcus Trescothick, and, with what I wrote the other day in mind, this, from The Times, made interesting and welcome reading.

Hopefully we'll see him back in England colours before too long, but his return cannot, must not, be rushed, because another relapse would surely mean the end.
