Just nine days to go
Jofra Archer has been included in the 15-man England squad for the Cricket World Cup this summer, with Joe Denly and David Willey missing out.
Archer made his England debut only this month, and a number of impressive performances during the recent ODI series against Pakistan have earned the fast bowler a place in the team.
Liam Dawson has been included as a spare spinner alongside mainstays Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid.
There are few surprises elsewhere in the squad, as captain Eoin Morgan and national selector Ed Smith picked six batsmen, four all rounders, one specialist spinner and four seamers.
