Matthew Potts receives his first call up to England’s ODI squad following his Test debut this summer

Durham seamer Matthew Potts is called up to the ODI squad for the first time after making an impressive debut in England’s four Test matches earlier this summer.

Yorkshire spinner Adil Rashid returns to both squads after missing the series against India, having been permitted by the ECB to make The Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca.

Jonathan Bairstow is included in the T20 squad after he was rested for the India series.

England men’s Test captain Ben Stokes will not feature in the Vitality T20I series and The Hundred competition in order to manage his workload.

The ODI series begins in Durham on Tuesday, just two days after the decider of England’s three-match 50-over contest with India. Further ODIs then follow at Old Trafford on Friday, July 22 and at Headingley on Sunday, July 24.

The three-match T20I series, which is part of both sides’ build-up to the World Cup later this year, starts in Bristol on Wednesday, July 27, before the teams meet again in Cardiff the following day.

The final limited overs match between the teams will be played in Southampton at The Ageas Bowl on Sunday, July 31, before they play a three-match Test series in August and September.
