There are also places in the 14-man squad for Jamie Overton, who played his only Test in June 2022, and Chris Woakes, who is back for the first time since last winter’s tour of New Zealand following an ankle injury. Yet it is the presence of Bethell, the 21-year-old batting prodigy, that will cause most intrigue ahead of the start of the five-match series that starts in Leeds on 20 June.
