 Flintoff bowled 35 overs in the first Test

England will continue to monitor Andrew Flintoff's fitness before naming their team for the second Ashes Test, which starts at Lord's on Thursday.
The all-rounder had a scan and cortisone injection to his right knee following the drawn first Test having felt discomfort while fielding.
National selector Geoff Miller said: "I don't think it's a flare-up - just a reaction to one of his old injuries.
"It's not disastrous but we just have to be very wary of it and monitor it."
Flintoff experienced the pain in his knee after playing in the first Test in Cardiff, prompting England to name Steve Harmison in a 14-man squad for the match at Lord's as cover for the 31-year-old.

The scan was to the same knee Flintoff underwent an operation on last month and England will be keen for him to prove his fitness ahead of the game.
Miller added: "Andrew knows himself how painful it is and whether he'll be able to compete, but it's a long series and we've got four more games to play so we've got to take that into consideration."
England squad: AJ Strauss (capt), AN Cook (Essex), RS Bopara (Essex), KP Pietersen (Hampshire), PD Collingwood (Durham), MJ Prior (Sussex, wkt), A Flintoff (Lancashire), SCJ Broad (Nottinghamshire), GP Swann (Nottinghamshire), JM Anderson (Lancashire), MS Panesar (Northamptonshire), IR Bell (Warwickshire), G Onions (Durham), SJ Harmison (Durham)
