Andrew Flintoff not included in Lancashire's T20 Blast team to face Yorkshire

Andrew Flintoff has failed to make the team for the Lancashire Lightning's NatWest T20 Blast clash against the Yorkshire Vikings on Friday.

The former England international tried to prove his fitness once again today after deciding to come out of retirement last week.

Despite taking a number of wickets, the 36-year-old has not been named in the team, which was announced on the club's official Twitter page ahead of tomorrow's encounter.

The all-rounder took two wickets and scored 16 runs while playing for Lancashire's second XI on Thursday against Leicestershire, who won the T20 semi-final by 29 runs.

Flintoff, who had a brief stint in boxing after leaving cricket, retired from the sport five years ago.
