Rocky Flintoff, son of former England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff, left his mark during Lancashire 2nd XI's game against Durham in Chelmsford. The 16-year-old smashed an unbeaten half-century before the match ended in a draw due to rain. However, Rocky caught the attention of the fans with his six-hitting prowess, which had an uncanny resemblance to his father Andrew. In a video posted by the Lancashire, the teenager can be seen hitting three sixes, all off pull shots. "Rocky Flintoff with 3 sixes on his way to an unbeaten half-century for the 2nd XI!. Our 2nd XI clash with Durham ends in a draw as the rain interrupts once again," Lancashire captioned the video.

Coming in to bat at no. 5, Rokcy hit 78-ball half-century and ended unbeaten on 50 not out.
Andrew Flintoff's older son, Corey, was also part of the playing XI for Lancashire's 2nd XI. He bowled four overs but failed to pick a wicket, conceding 19 runs in the process.
Rocky and Corey's legendary father played 79 Tests for England before retiring from cricket aged 32.
During his cricket career, Flintoff played a pivotal role in England winning the Ashes in 2005 and 2009.
Flintoff had announced his retirement from Test cricket after the 2009 Ashes triumph in the Oval Test, but decided to quit all forms of the game with immediate effect because of a long-standing knee injury.
The 46-year-old, also known as Freddie, has gone on to have a career in television including co-presenting the hit motorshow Top Gear.
Last year, Flintoff suffered a horrific car accident while shooting Top Gear. The incident left him with multiple injuries and scars on his face.
