- Amar Virdi and Ollie Robinson join established internationals
- Batsmen and keepers due to begin sessions on 1 June
Amar Virdi, Surrey’s title-winning off-spinner, and the promising Sussex seamer Ollie Robinson are among the 18 bowlers who will begin individual training sessions from Thursday in anticipation of England staging an international summer.
While not a squad per se, England are expected to call on a group of up to 30 players for the six biosecure Tests they intend to stage behind closed doors against West Indies and Pakistan from 8 July, subject to clearance from the government.
