However, with Rocky Flintoff’s brilliant century, his discussion has started in full swing among the former greats of England and in the English media. And former spinner Green Swan has made a big prediction about Rocky.
Proved the selection right in front of father Andrew
Rocky has progressed very rapidly in recent times. The result was that he was selected in the England Lions team as part of the preparations for the Ashes. The coach of this team is also his father, a former all-rounder. And now he proved with his century that his selection was absolutely right.
This is 16-year-old Rocky Flintoff raising his century for English Lions v CA XI. Dad Freddie watched from the sidelines with Graeme Swann who says we will be seeing Rocky for 20 years. He bats, walks and talks like dad. I know Sachin played Tests at 16 but this is rare air. pic.twitter.com/ZzCZig1w7R
