London, July 18 (ANI): All rounder Andrew Flintoff has admitted that he no longer has designs on becoming an England captain again and is simply focused on fulfilling his career as an all-rounder.
Flintoff makes his England Test return against South Africa at Headingley today after 19 months.
"Being captain is not something I'm looking to do now, I just want to carry on with my game. I want to be a part of a winning England team; The Mirror quoted Flintoff, as saying.
"It'd be nice to take a wicket with my first ball back! The ankle operation was a long time ago and I don't feel it at all," he said.
"There is obviously an expectation, but I can't build it up too much in my own mind. You had that more than anyone with people turning up at matches just to see Ian Botham," Flintoff added. (ANI)
