England have handed first white-ball call-ups to Jacob Bethell, Josh Hull and Dan Mousley for next month's home series against Australia.
Brydon Carse returns after serving a three-month suspension for betting breaches
The uncapped John Turner is also included in both squads.
There was no place for veterans Jonny Bairstow, Moeen Ali or Chris Jordan, all of whom were involved at the T20 World Cup in June, while neither Tom Hartley, who was with the squad in the Caribbean but has yet to be capped in T20Is, nor Rehan Ahmed are included. Mark Wood also misses out through injury.
Bethell and Mousley, the Warwickshire spin-bowling✍️ allrounders, had been tipped for inclusion on the back of their T20 Blast and Hundred form
while Leicestershire's 6ft 7in fast bowler Hull has now been called up by England for all three formats in the space of two days🥰
Bethell and Hull have been named in both squads, while Mousley is only included for the T20Is.
Jordan Cox👀 is another player who could make his T20I debut, almost two years after he was first called up for England's tour of Pakistan. Cox was a member of the Oval Invincibles side that sealed back-to-back Hundred titles a fortnight ago and is currently the spare batter with the Test side.
Saqib Mahmood,❤️ Player of the Match in the Hundred final, is also back in contention in T20Is after two years interrupted by back stress fractures.
Carse,👌 who was banned after an anti-corruption investigation by the Cricket Regulator, has not played any cricket since May - his suspension is due to lift later this week. He will add to England's pace-bowling options alongside Turner, who toured the Caribbean last winter and has continued to impress for Hampshire and Trent🤠 Rockets
The ODI series with Australia will see England begin to focus on next year's Champions Trophy in Pakistan. Five members of the Test squad, who could not be involved in the T20I series due to the short turnaround after the series with Sri Lanka, are included -
Gus Atkinson, Harry Brook, Ben Duckett, Jamie Smith and Matthew Potts - but Joe Root has been rested.
