Freddie Flintoff’s son Rocky, 16, named in England U19s squad alongside Ashes hero’s son and another ex-star’s nephew

The youngsters will be take part in a training camp in South Africa from November 25 to December 16.
They will then face South Africa in a series across January and February next year.
Among 18 players selected are Rocky Flintoff, Archie Vaughan and Jaydn Denly.
Rocky, 16, is the son of cricket icon and TV personality Freddie Flintoff.
His son is hoping to follow in his father’s footsteps, who captained England and won the Ashes in 2005.
Just like his dad, Rocky is a right arm fast-medium bowler and a right-handed batsman.
The teenage sensation is the youngest player to ever appear for Lancashire and the youngest to score a century for the England Under-19s.
Archie, 18, is the son of another ex-England captain in Michael Vaughan.
He captained the iconic 2005 Ashes side that featured Flintoff.
