England Lions call up Tom Bailey, Zak Chappell and Matthew Carter for first time

Lancashire bowler Tom Bailey is one of three players to secure a first call into the England Lions squad.

Bailey joins Nottinghamshire pair Zak Chappell and Matthew Carter in securing a place in the squad to tour India in January and February.

The 27-year-old was PCA Championship Player of the Year in 2018 after taking 64 wickets for Lancashire, while Chappell impressed for Leicestershire last season before securing a move to Trent Bridge, where Carter put up some excellent performances, most notably in limited-overs cricket.

Carter is only named in the 50-over squad while Bailey features in only the Test squad - Chappell is in both parties.

There is also a place for Ben Duckett for the first time since being given a final written warning for his conduct in Australia where he poured a beer over James Anderson's head in a Perth bar during the Ashes series.

The incident led to the 24-year-old being omitted from the party that toured the West Indies earlier this year, but he is included in both squads.

The trip sees the Lions take on India A across five 50-over matches and two A Tests.

Dom Bess and Ollie Pope, who were involved in England's Test series last summer, are included in both squads along with the experienced Sam Billings.

The series comes off the back of a busy trip to the United Arab Emirates, where the Lions beat Pakistan A in the T20 leg of their trip but were narrowly beaten in the 50-over and Test series.

Their first fixture in India comes on January 23, the first of five one-day games which will all be held in Thiruvananthapuram.

Wayanad will host the two Test matches with the first of those getting underway on February 7.
