Andrew Flintoff is currently preparing to put his Lancashire legacy on the line with a return to action after five years away.

But, judging by this video, fans shouldn't be worried that they won't be seeing the Freddie of old.

The 36-year-old turned out for Northern League side St Annes on Saturday and claimed three wickets in 12 overs, including five maidens.

One of his wickets was particularly eye-catching in nature, and made talk of him struggling to break into the Lancs Twenty20 team seem a touch churlish.

The former England star's reactions certainly didn't look to have slowed during his absence when he pulled off a remarkable catch off his own bowling.

You can see footage of his fantastic piece of fielding below, and also see how he got on with the bat by clicking here.
