Eoin Morgan and Alex Hales are back in the England limited-overs squads to play India after missing the tour to Bangladesh.
Morgan has been restored to the captaincy of both the one-day international and the Twenty20 groups, with Hales also named in both.
Captain Morgan and record-breaking opener Hales decided not to take part in the recent tour of Bangladesh due to security fears after the terror attack on a Dhaka cafe five months ago.
That led to speculation the pair might be omitted from the squad to tour India, especially with Jos Buttler having performed admirably in leading England to a hard-fought 2-1 series victory.
But ECB director of cricket Andrew Strauss has selected the duo to take on India in January and February in three ODIs and three Twenty20 internationals.
However, there is no place in either squad for of Ben Duckett after the Northamptonshire batsman struggled in Tests against Bangladesh and India.
"There was a lot of discussion around Duckett," said Bayliss. "He did well in Bangladesh, and if we had left someone else out they would have been desperately unlucky as well.
"Duckett has done himself no harm. He has shot up the pecking order and is right there or thereabouts."
It was simply the case that the return of Hales, Morgan and also Joe Root - rested for the ODIs in Bangladesh - meant someone had to give way.
Coach Trevor Bayliss explained: "We took the opportunity (in Bangladesh) to blood some younger players, who did well.
"We have done pretty well over the last 18 months in white-ball cricket, and the team has been reasonably stable and successful. There is no reason to change.
"(Duckett) has done well for himself, but we thought we would show a bit of solidarity with the team we have had and done so well."
When the opportunity arises, during the remainder of England's Test series in India, Bayliss will remind Duckett of the outstanding progress he has made over the past eight months.
"It is always difficult to leave someone out like that," he said.
"(But) sometimes change for change's sake means that someone in the team would have been bitterly disappointed and asking questions why they were left out.
"I have not had the chance to speak to him yet, but my message to him will be 'mate, well done, you have had a fantastic start and see this as the beginnings of a career ... keep going out and scoring runs because you are right there or thereabouts'.
"He has something about him that I think is quite exciting for England cricket."
