The Rose Bowl: England have handed three debut caps to Jordan Cox, Jacob Bethell and Jamie Overton for the first ODI against Australia at The Rose Bowl in Southampton on Wednesday.

The wicketkeeper-batter Cox, who was part of the Test squad against Sri Lanka, is set to make his England debut along with Surrey allrounder Overton and Warwickshire's Bethell in the series opener. Phil Salt was named the captain of the side in the absence of regular skipper Jos Buttler, who is recovering from a right calf injury.

Phil Salt and Will Jacks will open the innings while Jordam Cox, Liam Livingstone, Bethell, Sam Curran and Overton will take care of the middle-order batting.
