London: England recalled Andrew Flintoff to a 12-man squad for the second Test against South Africa, starting at Headingley on Friday, after drawing the first of a four-match campaign at Lord’s here on Monday.

The fast-bowling allrounder, who has not played Test cricket since captaining England to defeat against Australia at Sydney in January 2007, as they lost the Ashes 5-0, because of ankle and side injuries, was added to the team that played at Lord’s.

Reserve fast bowler Chris Tremlett was dropped from the squad.

THE SQUAD: Michael Vaughan (captain), Andrew Strauss, Alastair Cook, Kevin Pietersen, Ian Bell, Paul Collingwood, Tim Ambrose (wicketkeeper), Stuart Broad, Ryan Sidebottom, James Anderson, Monty Panesar, Andrew Flintoff.
