- Published
England have left seven members of their World Cup squad for the one-day series against New Zealand starting next Tuesday.
James Anderson, Stuart Broad, Ian Bell, Gary Ballance, Moeen Ali, Ravi Bopara and James Tredwell missed out, while an eighth, Chris Woakes, is injured.
Kent keeper-batsman Sam Billings is the only uncapped player in the squad.
Only Joe Root, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler and Mark Wood played in the drawn Test series against the Kiwis.
The five-Test Ashes against Australia starts on 8 July.
National selector James Whitaker said: "It is important to point out that none of these players have been ruled out of playing a role for England in limited-overs formats in the future.

Four players who featured against Ireland - Tim Bresnan, Jonny Bairstow, and debutants Zafar Ansari and James Vince - are not included.
