  The England selectors have also named a 17–strong England Performance Programme squad, including Middlesex's Toby Roland-Jones, which will undertake a month-long tour of India from mid-November.

  ECB Performance Director David Parsons said: “The England Performance Programme looks to identify and develop players that can go on to be world class cricketers for England in the future. This year, following a brief period of training at the National Cricket Performance Centre, Loughborough we  have the opportunity to take players to the sub-continent to work on specific skills which will further their individual games.

  “As in previous winters we will be shadowing the England team and their tour which is a model we have successfully used since 2006, providing England with a group of players that can be called upon should the need arise.  The England Lions squad for the tour to Australia in February 2013 will be selected towards the end of this training camp in December.”
