Duo cause concern for tourists

Owais Shah joined Andrew Flintoff on the sidelines as England secured a large lead over St Kitts & Nevis at Warner Park.

Shah, who finished unbeaten on 125 in a score of 424 for eight declared, has been ruled out for the rest of this three-day match with a scratched cornea and will be monitored in the next few days, as will Flintoff, who was sent to Jamaica for a scan on his side strain.

Left-arm spinner Monty Panesar claimed four for 53, while Stuart Broad, who replaced Flintoff, and James Anderson chipped in with two apiece as the hosts were dismissed for 251.

Flintoff returned to the England team hotel on Monday night and the results of the scan are expected on Tuesday.

Although the team management have been quick to emphasise the scanning procedure is precautionary, Flintoff has had side trouble before, namely when the injury kept him out of the home Test series against New Zealand last summer.
