Graham Onions replaces Andrew Flintoff

Durham paceman Graham Onions has replaced the injured Andrew Flintoff in the England squad for the Champions Trophy in South Africa.



Onions, who has yet to play a one-day international, has also been called into the squad for the current NatWest Series against Australia.



He will join the squad ahead of the third One-Day scheduled for tomorrow.



Flintoff will miss the Champions Trophy, which runs from September 22 to October 5, because of a knee injury.



The 31 year old all-rounder suffered a deep vein thrombosis in his right calf following knee surgery at the end of the Ashes and is expected to be sidelined for a minimum of six months.
