ECB names England men’s squad for the white-ball series against India

England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), on Friday, announced the squad for the upcoming white-ball series against India, starting July 7 at the Rose Bowl in Southampton.

The limited-overs fixtures feature three T20Is and as many ODIs. Both the squads will be led by Jos Buttler, who was on Thursday appointed as England’s white-ball captain following Eoin Morgan’s retirement.
