Rocky Flintoff: Lancashire make 16-year-old their youngest player


Rocky Flintoff has become Lancashire’s youngest first-team cricketer after being named in the Red Rose line-up for Sunday’s One-Day Cup game against Kent at Blackpool.

England Under-19 international Flintoff, the son of former England captain Andrew, made his debut aged 16 years 113 days – younger than any other player in the county’s 160-year history.

The teenager also made headlines just 10 days ago, when his innings of 106 in the second Test against Sri Lanka at Cheltenham made him England Under-19’s youngest-ever centurion.

He recently signed a professional contract with Lancashire after impressing for their second XI this season, scoring a ton against Warwickshire in April.
