England allrounder Andrew Flintoff is expected to play in the deciding fifth and final Ashes test against Australia.
Flintoff is recovering from an injured knee, which kept him out of the fourth Test that England lost in three days.
The England and Wales Cricket Board says Flintoff\'s right knee was reviewed today by his specialist and showed that his swelling had eased significantly since missing Australia\'s victory at Headingley to level the series at 1-1.
The fifth test starts at The Oval on August 20, and England need to win to regain the Ashes.
