Anderson, Trott rested for India ODIs, Chris Woakes and Jos Buttler replace the duo – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 in the five-match ODI series in the post-Christmas leg of the ongoing tour of India early next year.
The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) selectors on Tuesday named their 15-man squad for the one-day series against Men in Blue in January next year, and also made a couple of changes to their T20 squad for the two matches against the same opposition in December
Chris Woakes and Jos Buttler have been called up to replace Anderson and Trott for the India ODIs. Anderson was a key player for the tourists during their 2-1 Test series triumph, claiming 12 scalps in four matches to finish the series as the stand-out seamer from either side. The http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Warwickshire-c862 medium-pacer Chris Woakes gets his name in the list.
"Woakes and Buttler replace Anderson and Trott in [the] India ODI squad as [the] selectors look to manage workloads," the ECB said in a statement.
Uncapped Yorkshireman Joe Root, who made an impressive start to his Test career, with a match-saving half century at Nagpur, has been included in the T20 squad as a replacement for regular skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SCJ-Broad-c2465. The gangling Nottingham pacer last week returned home to undergo a rehab programme after picking up a foot injury during the recently concluded Test series against India.
In the absence of Broad, his deputy Eoin Morgan will lead the Poms in the two T20 Internationals against India in Pune and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mumbai-c820 on December 20 and 22 respectively. After the T20 series, the English team will return home for Christmas and the New Year. They will return to India in the first week of January to resume the itinerary, with an ODI in Rajkot on January 11.
