England Announces 14-Member Squad For 3 ODIs Against India, ‘Dangerous’ Ben Stokes Returns

The first ODI between England and India will be played on July 12 at Trent Bridge (Nottingham)

England Cricket Board (ECB) announced its 14-member England squad for the three-match ODI series against India, starting July 18.

All-rounder Ben Stokes, who tore his left hamstring during the Pakistan Test series, finds his place in the 14-member squad.

Stokes, however, was not picked for the three-match T20 International against India in order to give him full time to recuperate.

After whitewashing Australia 5-0, England team would be hoping to keep the momentum going against Virat Kohli’s men.
