England Men have named the squads for the upcoming white-ball series against South Africa and the IT20 internationals away to Ireland, with Matthew Potts and Brydon Carse set to feature.
England will contest three Metro Bank One-Day Internationals (ODIs) and three Vitality IT20s against South Africa. The ODI series begins on Tuesday 2 September at Headingley.
Carse is named in the ODI and T20 squads to take on South Africa while Matthew Potts is included in the IT20 touring party which will travel to Ireland in mid September.
The three-match IT20 series against Ireland will be staged at Malahide in Dublin with the opening game on Wednesday 17 September.
Warwickshire all-rounder Jacob Bethell has been named to captain England Men for the first time for the IT20 series against Ireland. The 21-year-old is set to become the youngest-ever England Men’s captain in an international match when he leads the team in Dublin.
Hampshire quick Sonny Baker has been called up to his first England Men squad after impressing in the winter with the England Lions and during the Vitality Blast and The Hundred.
The all-format Test players, aside from Bethell, have been rested for the IT20 series away to Ireland. Marcus Trescothick will also step in as Head Coach for that series.
England Men Selector, Luke Wright, said: “Jacob Bethell has impressed with his leadership qualities ever since he has been with the England squads and the series against Ireland will provide him with the opportunity to further develop those skills on the international stage.
“Sonny is a player we have identified for a while and he was impressive during the England Lions tours last winter. He has carried that form into this season in white-ball cricket with Hampshire and Manchester Originals and deservedly gets his opportunity.”
