England Name 16-man T20I Squad For West Indies Tour

England’s captain Eoin Morgan and his squad will head to the Caribbean for a five-match series scheduled to take place in Barbados from January 22 to 30.

The squad will include Two uncapped players – George Garton and David Payne.

The series marks the continuation of England’s preparations for the 2022 T20 World Cup, which will be held in Australia.

“We have selected a strong squad with some serious batting power and a balanced attack as we begin preparations ahead of the T20 World Cup in Australia,” said Collingwood.

“The [T20] World Cup is less than a year away and there will be increased opportunities for the squad in the absence of those players who are with the Ashes squad.

“I have good memories winning a World Cup in Barbados and I’m really looking forward to going back there with this squad to face a very good West Indies who will test all aspects of our skills.”

England squad in full:

Eoin Morgan (captain), Moeen Ali, Tom Banton, Sam Billings, Liam Dawson, George Garton, Chris Jordan, Liam Livingstone, Saqib Mahmood, Tymal Mill, David Payne, Adil Rashid, Jason Roy, Phil Salt, Reece Topley, James Vince.
