Ahead of the three-match T20 International series against India, England have suffered a setback as all-rounder Ben Stokes has been left out from the 14-man squad. Stokes is currently undergoing rehabilitation as he tore his left hamstring during the two-match Test series against Pakistan. The all-rounder will also miss the one-off T20I against Australia on June 27. However, he will be with the squad throughout the series.

Meanwhile, England have named brothers Tom and Sam Curran for the series against India. Apart from the brothers, Jake Ball, Jonny Bairstow, and all-rounder Moeen Ali have been named in the squad as well. However, England selectors left out Mark Wood, Dawid Malan, Sam Billings, Liam Dawson and James Vince. All-rounder Chris Woakes also misses out due to a knee injury. "He (Woakes) has had an injection for the knee issue last Monday and will now undertake a rehabilitation and conditioning programme to address both injuries," read an ECB statement.

"A date for return cannot be specified at this stage, but he will not be available before the India ODI series," the statement further added.

England T20I Squad: Eoin Morgan (capt), Moeen Ali, Jonathan Bairstow, Jake Ball, Jos Buttler, Sam Curran, Tom Curran, Alex Hales, Chris Jordan, Liam Plunkett, Adil Rashid, Joe Root, Jason Roy, David Willey.
