Former England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff has returned to the cricket field after being involved in an accident last December. He joined the England’s camp during their first ODI against New Zealand in Cardiff.
The 45-year-old Flintoff was spotted in field exercises with the England cricket team during the series of matches against New Zealand. He has not officially joined the English side and will only last for the next four matches.
"He's obviously an England legend and it's just nice to have him around the group. He's not been brought in with any specific role, just to be around and observe,” said Jos Buttler.

Flintoff is also not expected to accompany the team to the upcoming Cricket World Cup in India next month.
Flintoff, renowned for his impressive all-round playing career, played 79 test matches and 141 international one-day matches for England before retiring in 2009.
He has made a return to the cricket field following an unfortunate accident during the filming of the BBC program Top Gear, which resulted in him breaking his ribs and taking a break from the sport.
