Josh Hull will make his England debut in the third Test against Sri Lanka starting on Friday at The Oval, live on Sky Sports.
The 20-year-old Leicestershire seamer replaces Matt Potts as an option for England as they look to complete a 3-0 clean sweep in the series.
Hull was called into the squad ahead of the second Test against Sri Lanka after Mark Wood was injured in the first Test at Emirates Old Trafford, and now gets his chance in the final Test of the summer.
Hull, who made his first-class debut last year, is the only change to Ollie Pope’s side from Lord’s, with Olly Stone keeping his place after playing instead of Wood in the second Test.
Ahead of the final Test vs Sri Lanka, stand-in captain Pope explained that Hull has a “massive ceiling” that will show when he gets his opportunity this week.
