All three players were part of the team in the T20 World Cup 2024, where England lost to India in the semi-finals. 5 uncapped players have got a chance in the T20 team, including Jordan Cox, Jacob Bethell, Dan Mousley, Josh Hull and John Turner. All these players have impressed with their performance in domestic cricket.

England's limited overs cricket team captains Jos Butler and Jofra Archer have also returned. Butler was injured during The Hundred.

Cox performed brilliantly in both the T20 Blast and The Hundred tournaments. Josh Hull and John Turner made a lot of impact with their bowling. Jacob Bethell and Dan Mousley can prove to be excellent all-rounders for England.
