Three spinners in England’s squad for one-off T20 against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760 – Cricket News Update
In a bid to get ready for the sub-continent challenge in Sri Lanka this year, the England and Wales Cricket Board selectors included three spinners in their 13-man squad for the one-off T20 International against West Indies, to be played at Trent Bridge,
Nottingham on June 24. The http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Danny-Briggs-c1315.
The fourth edition of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 World Twenty20 is scheduled to be held in Sri Lanka in September this year, where England will be defending its world champ title. Playing conditions in sub-continent are quite different from those in England. The tracks in England
support pace bowling whereas the turning tracks in subcontinent countries – http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747 – assist spinners.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/JM-Anderson-c1705, who was rested for the Edgbaston Test and has been recalled for the three-match ODI series against Windies, has not been included for the one-off match.
Ravi Bopara, who missed the Test series against Caribbean side, has been included in the squads for the one-day leg of the home series, while http://www.senore.com/Cricket/C-Kieswetter-c1206 will continue keeping wickets in both ODI and T20 series.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/KP-Pietersen-c1806, who last month retired from international limited overs cricket.
Following KP’s retirement, all eyes will be set on how promising batsman Eoin Morgan fares. The http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Middlesex-c817 batsman was disappointing against Pakistan in UAE earlier this year with 66 runs in four ODIs. However, he returned to form
with an audacious century knock against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Lancashire-c806 in a CB40 match on Sunday.
Despite having outclassed the Windies 2-0 in the three-match Test series, the national selector, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Geoffrey-Miller-c58870, is expecting a tough one-day series against the tourists.
"We are anticipating a very competitive series against West Indies and are looking to continue to build on the progress we made in limited-overs cricket earlier this year against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Miller-c76318 after announcing the squad.
