He came up to me at Old Trafford

'We created pressure and chances and Cook made a good decision to bring Bresnan on when he did,' said Flower with a smile. He added of Warne: 'He criticised Cook? Well, he is working with the Australian team I suppose.'It was as far as Flower would go in retaliating but he was effusive about the leadership qualities of Cook when asked about the key factors in England dominating the old enemy.'One of the biggest things is the two captains we have had,' said Flower. 'In Andrew Strauss and Cook I think English cricket has been very lucky to have two outstanding leaders. In the situation we were in at tea on Monday you need strong and decisive leadership and Cook showed that.'There was praise for Broad, outstanding in taking six wickets on Monday and 11 in the Test, and the unsung qualities of Bresnan, who could easily have been dropped had calls for Graham Onions to play on his home ground been heeded.'Stuart has had a quiet series wickets wise but he's bowled pretty well and hasn't got rewards,' said Flower.'He came up to me at Old Trafford and said, "I'm going to be in for a wickets haul soon".

I agreed with him. When you do the right things you do get rewards.'Flower added: 'Bresnan is an excellent man, a really solid bloke and a guy who is calm under pressure. He hasn't taken many five-wicket hauls but has made serious contributions.'Jimmy Anderson has been relatively quiet since his decisive contribution to the first Test victory and has looked tired but Flower indicated that he will play in next week's final Test at The Kia Oval.'It would have been impossible for Jimmy to sustain the standards and energy levels of the first two Tests but he will be fine,' said Flower.England have refused to give permission for Kevin Pietersen to play for Surrey in Twenty20 finals day on Saturday, citing the batsman's injury niggles.
