With just over a month remaining for the T20 World Cup 2022 to begin in Australia, the England men's team's selection panel named their 15-member squad. Senior fast bowlers Chris Woakes and Mark Wood have been named in the squad after returning from their respective injuries. Both players last played a competitive match during England's Test Tour of the West Indies.
The two senior pacers would be joined by Reece Topley, David Willey, Chris Jordan and all-rounders Sam Curran and Ben Stokes. Meanwhile, all-rounder Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid have been named as the two spin options for The Three Lions. The squad also includes three travelling reserves, who could get the opportunity to replace someone in the squad if someone were to get injured or sidelined for any reason. Meanwhile, wicket-keeper Jos Buttler will continue to lead the side. Fast bowler Jofra Archer misses out after failing to recover from injury.
