LONDON: Jordan Cox, Jacob Bethell and Jamie Overton are set to make their England Twenty20 debuts in the opening game of the three-match series against Australia on Wednesday.
Phil Salt captains the side in Southampton in the absence of injured skipper Jos Buttler. The T20 series is followed by five one-day internationals against the same opposition, with England picking youthful squads after relinquishing their T20 and 50-over world titles over the past year.
Essex´s Cox, 23, was the top-scorer for men´s champions Oval Invincibles in this year´s Hundred competition while Barbados-born Bethell, 20, impressed for Birmingham Phoenix. Surrey all-rounder Overton, who has played one Test for England, will play as a batter only as he recovers from a back injury.
