Andrew Flintoff – 79 Test matches, 82 sixes:
Andrew Flintoff, or better known as “Freddie” Flintoff has more than a bit of Ian Botham about him.
Strong, powerful, a genius with a bat and ball and a thirst for partying, Flintoff seemingly went to the Botham school of how to play cricket.
Like Botham he also inspired an Ashes win, in 2005, but he is far more than an imitation of a great player – he was a great player in his own right.
Widely considered to be better with ball in hand than bat, take nothing away from one of the most entertaining Test batsman of recent times.
