After a dismal few months in which he lost both his place in England’s Twenty20 side and his central contract, Jason Roy will return to international cricket in November for the three one-day internationals against Australia that follow the T20 World Cup.

England have named a 15-man squad for the series, largely composed of players already in Australia for the World Cup, though seven members of the T20 squad will depart. Ben Stokes, who has retired from the 50-over game, Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone and Mark Wood will feature in this winter’s Test series in Pakistan – the Test squad is due to arrive in Abu Dhabi the day before the ODI series begins to play a warm-up match, and to fly to Pakistan four days after it ends.
