Test Doubts

I can't see how they will go back!

Andrew Flintoff and Steve Harmison have been identified by England coach Peter Moores as having doubts over returning to India after the Mumbai attacks.

"Fred has had issues and it's fair to say Steve Harmison has as well," said Moores, as England wait for a security report to determine if they will tour.

"The important message from me is that we respect people and allow them to have their views," added Moores.

"The key is we get clear information. I hope as a team we all go together."

England have set up a training camp in Abu Dhabi while they wait to discover if the two-Test series will go ahead.

Senior England officials have travelled to India to assess security at Chennai, where the first Test is due to start on Thursday 11 December.

Hugh Morris, managing director of England cricket, and Sean Morris, chief executive of the Professional Cricketers' Association, will return to Abu Dhabi on Sunday with their conclusions and an announcement on the tour is expected shortly afterwards.
