Fast-bowler Jofra Archer has been named in the Jos Buttler-led 15-member preliminary squad that will represent defending champion England in the 2024 ICC T20 World Cup in the West Indies and United States of America starting in June.
The 29-year-old pacer's last appearance at the international level came over a year ago on England’s tour of Bangladesh in March 2023.
All teams are allowed to make changes to their squads until 25 May, after which any alteration will require approval from the ICC's Event Technical Committee.
Moreover, this squad will also take on Pakistan in the preceding four-match T20I series next month in Leeds.
The World Cup squad will fly to the Caribbean on 31 May ahead of England’s opening group match against Scotland at the Kensington Oval, Barbados, on 4 June.
