Subject: Flintoff returns from IPL for knee surgery Fri Apr 24, 2009 2:13 pm
England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff has returned to England from playing in the Indian Premier League in South Africa to undergo surgery on his right knee.
The England and Wales Cricket Board expects Flintoff to be out of action for three to five weeks.
It means the 31-year-old will miss the two-Test series against West Indies, which starts at Lord's on 6 May.
But he should be fit for the ICC World Twenty20 in June and the Ashes series against Australia which follows.

Thats a bit of a worry - our bowling attack will be far weaker without him in the Ashes.

I think you could take "attack" out of bowling attack if he wasnt playing against the aussies - not sure why ECB didnt advise him not to go to the IPL...
