The player
The hero of the 2005 Ashes. Flintoff used a Gunn & Moore Diamond for the early part of his career before switching to Woodworm during the famous 2005 series, then returning to GM. Both brands milked the association.
His 102 at Trent Bridge and 73 at Edgbaston in 2005 — and the consoling arm-around-Brett-Lee photo — are among the defining images of modern English cricket.
