Bridgetown (West Indies), Mar. 25 : England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff is looking forward to the second edition of the Indian Premier League to be played in South Africa from April 18.

Though Flintoff is sorry that the IPL will not be staged in India this year, he says he is looking forward to matching his skills with bat and ball with the likes of Matthew Hayden, Murali Muralitharan, Kevin Pietersen, Albie Morkel and others.

Having been declared fit, Flintoff is likely to replace fast bowler Steve Harmison in the squad for the third one-day international against the West Indies. (ANI)
