Current champion England out of World Cup

New Delhi. The performance of the current champion England team in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 was not good. The team captained by Jos Buttler could not even make it to the semi-finals. Captain Butler’s bat also remained silent in 9 matches. However, the England team ended its campaign by defeating Pakistan by 93 runs and bid farewell to the World Cup. Within 12 hours of the win against Pakistan, England Cricket announced its ODI and T20 squad for the upcoming West Indies tour (ENG vs WI). Despite the disappointing performance in the World Cup, Butler’s captaincy remains intact.

England has to play a series of ODI and T20 matches on the West Indies tour. The series will start with ODI matches. The first ODI match will be played on 3 December in Antigua. Six players of the World Cup team have got a place in the white ball cricket format, among which Butler is also included. 9 players have been shown the door. The six players who have been selected from the World Cup squad for the West Indies tour include Gus Atkinson, Harry Brook, Braydon Carse, Sam Curran and Liam Livingstone.

3 players get first chance
Some new players have also got a chance in the England team for the ODI series. Ollie Pope, John Turner and Josh Tong are still waiting for their ODI debut. Pope is returning from a shoulder injury. He has been given preference in place of Sam Hein. Sam Hein impressed on debut against Ireland. His staying out of the team is a surprising decision.
