English cricket legend Andrew Flintoff has been tasked with inspiring the Sydney Thunder up the BBL ladder after his appointment as coach.
Following weeks of speculation, the reigning wooden spooners confirmed on Tuesday that Flintoff had signed a two-year deal to replace Trevor Bayliss.
Known ubiquitously as 'Freddie', Flintoff is remembered for his prolific career as an allrounder that yielded 272 international caps across all formats.
