But after the opening batter suffered an injury-disrupted series against New Zealand, he was the unlucky man to miss out, with Brook promoted to the final 15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mixed Messages from England<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">England originally named their 15-man squad back in August, on the back of Ben Stokes announcing his decision to reverse his ODI retirement. Described as a provisional squad by the England management, it was hotly debated, with big names like Harry Brook and Jofra Archer missing out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the days after the squad announcement, the England management backtracked and said nothing was confirmed as pundits lined up to criticise the omission of Brook in particular.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But Dawid Malan and David Willey contradicted the &#8216;provisional&#8217; tag given to the squad by both claiming they were informed they were going to the World Cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Roy turns down the chance to impress against Ireland<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It has since emerged that Jason Roy turned down the chance to join up with the England squad selected to face Ireland after Joe Root was rested for the final two matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Root wasn\u2019t named in the original squad to play Ireland in the three-match series but was later added to the party to get some time in the middle after a disappointing series with the bat against New Zealand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, in yet another bizarre twist, after the first game was washed-out without a ball being bowled, Root was pulled out of the squad for the remainder of the series to rest. Jason Roy was then asked to step in and cover for Root. But he declined the call-up, with Tom-Kohler Cadmore called up instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This seems like another slap in the face for Roy from the England selectors. And with the Surrey batter having previously turned down his ECB incremental contract in May, it remains to be seen if he will ever play for England again.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">England second favourites to win the 2023 Cricket World Cup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">England are second favourite in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketbettingblog.com\/hi\/icc-cricket-world-cup-betting\/\">betting to win the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup<\/a>. Hosts India lead the betting at 2\/1, with England next at 3\/1.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"footable_parent_8341\"\n         class=\"footable_parent ninja_table_wrapper loading_ninja_table wp_table_data_press_parent bootstrap3\">\n                    <h3 class=\"table_title footable_title\">2027 ICC World Cup Winner Betting<\/h3>\n                        <table data-ninja_table_instance=\"ninja_table_instance_0\" data-footable_id=\"8341\" data-filter-delay=\"1000\" aria-label=\"2027 ICC World Cup Winner Betting\"            id=\"footable_8341\"\n           data-unique_identifier=\"ninja_table_unique_id_2548011702_8341\"\n           class=\"foo-table ninja_footable foo_table_8341 ninja_table_unique_id_2548011702_8341 table  nt_type_ajax_table vertical_centered  footable-paging-right ninja_table_search_disabled\">\n                <colgroup>\n                            <col class=\"ninja_column_0\">\n                            <col class=\"ninja_column_1\">\n                            <col class=\"ninja_column_2\">\n                            <col class=\"ninja_column_3\">\n                    <\/colgroup>\n            <\/table>\n    \n    \n    \n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it remains to be seen how harmonious the England squad is after the messy squad selection. Any allies Jason Roy has in the current group may be heading to India feeling uncomfortable at the treatment of a player who has done so much for the side.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And it\u2019s also pretty clear that Dawid Malan and David Willey were not overly impressed with how the squad announcement was handled and the uncertainty that went with the endless speculation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All in all, it\u2019s not ideal preparation for the English as they look to defend the trophy they won for the first time in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-6fcf3d62-7fff-5a8d-5243-2e40586ffe00\"><div><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; vertical-align: baseline;\"><\/span><\/div><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>England has settled on their 15 players that will defend the ICC Cricket World Cup in India next month.
