Former cricketer Andrew Flintoff was seen in the England camp as they prepare for a four-match T20I series against Pakistan.
Flintoff has a close relationship with England's managing director Rob Key. The two were observed chatting during one of England's practice sessions. Flintoff also engaged in discussions with white-ball head coach Matthew Mott and selector Luke Wright.
While there has been no official announcement regarding Flintoff joining the coaching staff, he was spotted wearing a baseball glove and participating in throwdowns.
Flintoff expressed his enthusiasm about being back with the England squad, stating he felt great to be involved again.
“My time with the England Men's team has been a reminder of just how special cricket is to me, and I'm relishing the opportunity to be back amongst it, helping to guide the Superchargers team to success on the field while making memories off it and helping to take cricket to more people,” Flintoff was quoted as saying by Mirror.
The four-match T20I series against Pakistan will begin at Headingley in Leeds on May 22, followed by games in Birmingham on May 25, Cardiff on May 28, and the Oval in London on May 30.
