When England travels to the West Indies in October and November of this year to play three T20I and five ODI, they will be welcoming back their usual white-ball captain Jos Buttler. Buttler was sidelined by a calf injury during the last T20Is and ODIs versus Australia.
Jos Buttler, Jofra Archer, Jacob Bethell, Jafer Chohan, Sam Curran, Will Jacks, Liam Livingstone, Saqib Mahmood, Dan Mousley, Jamie Overton, Adil Rashid, Phil Salt, Reece Topley, John Turner are the England players for the West Indies ODIs and T20Is.
Three uncapped players have also been picked by England for the team, one of whom being Yorkshire leg-spinner Jafer Chohan, 22, who has received his maiden call-up to the senior team. In addition, he is the first South Asian Cricket Academy alumnus to be chosen for an England Men’s team. Dan Mousley and John Turner, who were on the team for the series against Australia, are the other two uncapped players.
When the third match of that series gets underway in Rawalpindi on October 28, two more players from the Test squad in Pakistan will be added to England’s initial 14-player roster. The Test team includes Harry Brook, who skippered England in the Australia series instead of Buttler.
The ODIs will begin the Caribbean tour; the first two will take place in Antigua on October 31 and November 2, and the third will be held in Barbados on November 6. The five Twenty20 Internationals are scheduled between November 9–17.
