FORMER ENGLAND CAPTAIN UNVEILED AS COACH DOWN UNDER
ANDREW Flintoff is set to miss the back end of England Lions’ tour of South Africa this winter after being unveiled as the new head coach of Sydney Thunder in Australia’s Big Bash League.
The former England captain has been overseeing the second-string Lions since 2024 after gravitating back towards cricket during his rehabilitation from a horrific car crash on the BBC’s ‘Top Gear’ show.
While the 2026-27 BBL schedule has yet to be announced, it is highly likely there will be some overlap with the Lions in South Africa, which finishes with a four-day game in Benoni starting on December 18.
However, it is understood the England and Wales Cricket Board is happy for Flintoff to depart South Africa early and continue a burgeoning coaching career in his first role in an overseas T20 league.
