London, Jun 18 (ANI): Andrew Flintoff, whose heroics against Australia at Lord's in 2009 helped England clinch the Ashes, is set for his toughest innings yet-living with a remote tribe in Botswana.
Flintoff is training for the trip to Botswana in southern Africa and a camera crew will follow him for the first week as he lives with the locals and learns key survival tips.
The crew will then leave him to fend for himself with the tribe and he will be responsible for filming all the action on a hand-held camera.
"This is the ultimate test for Freddie. He loves things that have a survival element to them, and this has that in buckets," The Sun quoted a TV source, as saying.
"It was his idea - he's really keen to do more TV. He loved doing the Freddie Flintoff Versus The World show for ITV," the source added.
Flintoff, 33, who has just got over a knee operation, is carving out a new career as a TV action man.
The new show is being lined up for ITV or the BBC. It will follow other similar formats from stars such as Bruce Parry, who has lived with remote tribes across the world for BBC2's Tribe. (ANI)
