World Cup 2023: England announce World Cup 2023 Squad: The England Cricket Board (ECB) on Sunday, September 17 announced England's strong 15-men squad for the ODI World Cup 2023, starting next month in India. Star performers - Jason Roy and Jofra Archer - have missed their chances of making it to the England World Cup 2023 squad.



Jason Roy, who was preferred in the provisional squad, missed England all four ODI fixtures against New Zealand due to recurring back spasms. Young Harry Brook replaced Jason Roy in the ODI series, but he too couldn't make the most of the opportunity, losing his wicket under 25 runs in three outings.



Despite his poor show, England have preferred Harry Brook for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 in India and overlooked the services of experienced Jason Roy.



In another shocking exclusion, ace pacer Jofra Archer ran out of time to prove his match fitness following multiple instances of injuries. The pacer is likely to travel to India only as a traveling reserve.



Senior wicketkeeper batter Jos Buttler will spearhead the England side, which saw a return of all-rounder Ben Stokes into the 50-over format. Stokes upon his return stormed into the ODI scene with a stellar 182 off 124 balls - the highest ODI individual score by any England player.



The pace battery comprises of Reece Topley, Mark Wood, Chris Woakes, Sam Curran, and David Willey. The spin department will get the services from Moeen Ali, Adil Rashid, Joe Root, and Liam Livingstone.



Dawid Malan topped the run-getters chart during the recently held England vs New Zealand series which helped him cement his place in England's first playing11 in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023. Malan also plundered his fifth ODI ton in the series.



Meanwhile, England and New Zealand, the finalists of the 2019 ODI World Cup, will kick off the proceedings of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 in Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium on October 5. 



After concluding the opening fixture, England will play its next three games against Bangladesh, Afghanistan, and South Africa. While New Zealand will lock horns against the Netherlands, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan in its next three fixtures.



Below is England's World Cup 2023 Squad, Complete Player List for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023:

World Cup 2023: England announce World Cup 2023 Squad, Jofra Archer, Jason Roy misses out

Defending champions England have made a big call ahead of the 2023 Cricket World Cup by leaving opening batsman Jason Roy out of their squad. He was a big part of their success four years ago when they lifted the trophy for the first time at Lord?s.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

</div></figure>



Roy was initially named in Jos Buttler?s squad, but he was unable to play any of England?s warm-up matches for the World Cup due to back spasms. Although he deemed himself fit for the tournament in India, England opted to remove him from the squad and him the opportunity to be on their reserve list.



The 33-year-old has played 116 ODIs for England, scoring 4,271 runs and averaging an impressive 39.91. His top score of 180 was England?s highest innings in ODI cricket until Ben Stokes broke that record against New Zealand at the Oval earlier this year.



Roy ended his incremental contract with the ECB back in May to play in the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.bbc.com/sport/cricket/65711625">new franchise league in the United States</a>, Major League Cricket. This latest decision by England means he may now have played his final game for his country.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Harry Brook Proved Himself in the New Zealand Series</h2>



The absence of Roy has left space for Brook to feature at the World Cup. The Yorkshire player has been one of England?s most exciting batsmen in all three formats of the game over the last 12 months. He showed his quality at the T20 World Cup in 2022 and during the Ashes against Australia last summer.



Brook has only played five ODIs in his career so far, but he has plenty of white-ball experience. He scored 238 runs during The Hundred in 2023, the third highest in the tournament, including a century, while he has also played IPL cricket in India for the Sunrisers Hyderabad.



One of the reasons England decided to go with Brook over Roy is his versatility to bat anywhere between one and six in the team. He opened the batting for Hyderabad at the 2023 IPL, while he has shown for England, he can come into the crease at the back end of an innings and score some valuable runs quickly.



With Brook now in the squad, as of September 26, England is second best at +300 in?the <a href="https://betway.com/en/sports/cat/cricket">cricket betting for the World Cup</a>. They have only hosts India ahead of them in the outright market.?



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ben Stokes Comes Out of Retirement</h2>



England Test captain Stokes made a U-turn on his retirement from ODI cricket during the summer to play in the 2023 Cricket World Cup.&nbsp;He will feature in the ODI tournament&nbsp;as a specialist batsman, as his knee injury restricts him from bowling as an all-rounder.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
https://twitter.com/BLACKCAPS/status/1701974790083326040
</div></figure>



In his opening series back in the ODI team, Stokes showed his worth in that recording-breaking 182-run innings&nbsp;against the Kiwis. He hit 15 fours and nine sixes, with his runs scoring from just 124 balls.&nbsp;&nbsp;



As well as being a talented batsman, Stokes? experience is going to prove invaluable for the defending champions. He was part of the team which lifted the trophy in 2019 and he has been a key figure in all three England teams since making his debut in 2011. The big-hitting batsman will be doing all he can to help his side overcome the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/icc-team-ranking-updated-after-ind-vs-aus-india-on-top-full-icc-mens-odi-team-standings/" data-type="post" data-id="120068">number one-ranked team in the world</a>, India, and their other rivals in the competition.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Comfortable New Zealand Series Win</h2>



England head to India in good form following&nbsp;<a href="https://www.reuters.com/sports/cricket/malan-ton-leads-england-series-victory-over-nz-2023-09-15/">their 3-1 series win against New Zealand</a>. After losing the opening game of that four-match series in Cardiff, wins followed at the Rose Bowl, the Oval, and Lord?s. The home team showed exactly why they are one of the leading contenders for the trophy at the World Cup.



Dawid Malan was the leading runscorer in the series against the Kiwis with 277 runs, and he showed that he can open the batting successfully in the team alongside Jonny Bairstow. The highlight for the 35-year-old was his century at Lord?s in the fourth ODI.



Buttler?s side will face India and Bangladesh in warm-up matches, before they feature in the opening game of the Cricket World Cup against New Zealand on October 5. That will be&nbsp;<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/2023-cricket-world-cup-schedule/">the first of 48 matches in India</a>.



If England can defend their trophy in this year?s edition of the leading tournament in cricket, they will become the first team to win back-to-back renewals since Australia managed that feat in 2007.
