- Leicestershire left-armer replaces Matt Potts
- Bowler made first-class debut last year
Josh Hull will cap an extraordinary rise to prominence by making his England Test debut on Friday after the 20‑year‑old seamer was picked for the summer’s final match against Sri Lanka at the Oval.
Hull replaces Matt Potts in the only change to the side that sealed a series win at Lord’s last week. The 6ft 7in left-armer has played only nine County Championship games; in three matches in that competition for Leicestershire this summer he took two wickets at an average of 182.50.
