HOLDEN & GUBBINS NAMED IN ENGLAND LIONS UAE TOUR SQUADS

HOLDEN AND GUBBINS NAMED IN ENGLAND LIONS SQUADS FOR UAE TOUR

The England Lions squad for the tour of the UAE has been named.

The team will take part in one four-day 'Test' versus Pakistan A, as well as five A team 'ODIs' and two A Team 'IT20s' against the same opposition.

Middlesex opener Nick Gubbins retains his place in the Lions' set up, whilst young Max Holden earns a first call up to the Lions squad. Both are named in the red and white ball squads.

Kent's Sam Billings - fresh from captaining his county to promotion in the Specsavers County Championship - is named in the four-day squad, while there are also call-ups for Surrey's Jason Roy and Durham's Mark Wood.

Worcestershire's Josh Tongue has been named as part of the four-day squad, subject to medical clearance following an injury he picked up in the current round of Specsavers County Championship games.

Billings, Roy, Tongue and Amar Virdi will swap out ahead of the white-ball leg of the tour, to be replaced by Alex Davies, Lewis Gregory, Sam Hain and Saqib Mahmood.
