Nottinghamshire batsman James Taylor has been included in the England Lions squad to face Bangladesh A in three one-day matches.

Taylor will miss Nottinghamshire's LV= County Championship match against Yorkshire at Trent Bridge to take part in the series.

England’s limited overs coach Ashley Giles will coach the side which includes three Lions debutants in a 12 man squad. Young bowlers Jamie Overton (Somerset) and David Willey (Northants) have both previously been through the Potential England Performance Programme (PEPP) with Overton also being part of the England Under 19 squad. Overton and Willey are joined by Sussex paceman Chris Jordan who has enjoyed a fine county season in 2013 taking over 50 First Class wickets. Jordan has also been a part of the England Performance Programme in 2009 and the PEPP in 2008.

The side will also include a number of players who have represented England at a senior level across different formats. These include the captain Luke Wright, Danny Briggs, Jos Buttler, Michael Carberry, Ben Stokes, Boyd Rankin and Taylor.

“We are delighted to reward this Lions team with an opportunity to impress the selectors ahead of a number of forthcoming ODI series," said National Selector Geoff Miller.

"Many of this squad have been in or around England, Lions, EPP or PEPP squads before, so it is a great chance for them to push for places for the England ODI games later this summer and also this coming winter.  

“Looking further ahead, we are also keen to build a strong platform for the 2015 World Cup, so opportunities such as this play a big part in giving the coaches an opportunity to assess the levels of these players first hand.”
