Andrew Flintoff’s 16-year-old son Rocky scored a century for Lancashire’s second XI against Warwickshire as his impressive batting form continued.
Rocky had smoked three sixes en route to an innings of 50 not out from 78 deliveries against Durham’s second string at Emirates Old Trafford last week.
He then struck 116 from 165 balls at Edgbaston on Tuesday, hitting 11 fours and three sixes along the way, and even batted with 18-year-old brother Corey for part of his innings – Corey making 20 from 45 balls.

All-rounder Andrew ‘Freddie’ Flintoff featured in 79 Tests, 141 one-day internationals and seven T20 internationals for England between 1998 and 2009, helping his side to home Ashes victories over Australia in 2005 and 2009.
Freddie moved into TV presenting after retiring as a player but, after a serious car crash while filming an episode of Top Gear, he has returned to cricket and worked as part of England’s backroom staff in the white-ball formats.
He will be the head coach for Northern Superchargers men in the 2024 edition of The Hundred, which runs from July 23 to August 18, live on Sky Sports.
