England announce squad for ICC Men’s World Cup

The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced their 15-player roster for the ICC Men’s World Cup 2023 in India on Sunday. Harry Brook was re-inducted into the team.

England announce squad for World Cup: “Harry Brook initially missed out on England’s World Cup preliminary squad due to Ben Stokes’ return but ultimately secured a place in the final roster for the reigning champions.”

Notably, Jason Roy’s absence from the four-match ODI series against New Zealand due to back spasms made Brook’s return possible.

Dawid Malan, the opening batsman, qualified for the World Cup as well after hitting the most runs (277) throughout the series against New Zealand.

Ben Stokes, meanwhile, cemented his place in the team following his outstanding return to ODI cricket in the just-completed series. In the third One-Day International against New Zealand, he hit 182 off 124 balls, shattering the previous record for the highest score by an England men’s player in ODIs.

“The national selector for England’s men, Luke Wright, stated that they have chosen a side they are convince can go to India and win the World Cup.” He played in just one of the New Zealand series’ games before getting cramping, and he then sat out the series’ remaining games.
