In an exciting development for English cricket, Aneurin Donald and Henry Crocombe have received their first international call-ups for the upcoming white-ball series against Sri Lanka. Both players have been recognized for their outstanding performances in domestic competitions.

Aneurin Donald, who has been instrumental in Trent Rockets' journey to the final of The Hundred and has excelled for Derbyshire in the Vitality Blast, has secured a spot in the 16-player squad for the T20 series. Meanwhile, seamer Henry Crocombe has been named in the one-day international squad, also comprising 16 players.

Marcus North, the national selector for the England men's team, praised both players, stating, "They are two promising players who have earned their places on the back of impressive performances in domestic cricket." In other news, all-rounder Jacob Bethell has undergone successful knee surgery and is aiming for a return in the white-ball series against Australia in November. Notably, Brydon Carse has been excluded from both squads following his recent troubles, including a brief arrest after an incident outside a Derby nightclub.
