One-Day Cup, Taunton<\/p>\n
Lancashire 443-6 50 overs: Jennings 156 (127), Flintoff 123 (76)<\/p>\n
Somerset: Yet to bat <\/p>\n
Scorecard<\/a><\/p>\n Rocky Flintoff, the 18-year-old son of legendary former England all-rounder Andrew, hit his first senior professional century in Lancashire’s One-Day Cup match against Somerset at Taunton.<\/p>\n The right-hander dominated the bowling in crashing 10 fours and seven sixes in a superb 123 from 76 balls in Lancashire’s 443-6.<\/p>\n After coming in at 138-3, Flintoff was the aggressor in a brutal partnership of 214 with Keaton Jennings and reached his century from just 65 deliveries.<\/p>\n Also capitalising on a flat pitch and a Somerset attack depleted by The Hundred, Jennings made 156. Lancashire’s total was their best in List A cricket.<\/p>\n But the century is the latest landmark moment in the young career of Flintoff.<\/p>\n He became Lancashire’s youngest player when he made his debut aged 16 years and 113 days in the One-Day Cup in 2024, a week after becoming England Under-19s’ youngest centurion with a ton against Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n He followed that by becoming England Lions’ youngest century-maker, in a match against Cricket Australia in January 2025, beating his father’s record.<\/p>\n Injuries have also hampered the teenager’s progress. <\/p>\n He missed last winter’s Under-19 World Cup with England and had to withdraw from The Hundred in 2025, having been signed by Northern Superchargers where his father was coach.<\/p>\n
