LONDON: Sussex fast bowler George Garton could make his debut for England after the 24-year-old was named by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) in the 16-member squad for the ODI series against Sri Lanka, starting in Durham on June 29.

The left-arm quick has been the mainstay of county side Sussex's white-ball plans over the past few years and been part of the England system since 2016.

However, 27-year-old fast bowler Olly Stone, following the second Test against New Zealand at Edgbaston recently, is not in the squad after being diagnosed with a stress fracture in his lower back. He will miss the rest of the summer. IANS
