After Australia, England were the second side to reveal their 16-member squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup in Australia. The Three Lions will enter the World Cup with a new captain Jos Buttler since Eoin Morgan announced his retirement in June 2022. England won the 2010 T20 World Cup. The Three Lions have played 38 matches in the T20 World Cups history and won just 19, which is concerning. The squad for the upcoming World Cup is without Jonny Bairstow and Jofra Archer. Besides the injuries, the team includes several match-winners. Here are the strengths, weaknesses, schedule, squad, and players to look out for in the England squad.

STRENGTHS

RETURN OF CHRIS WOAKES AND MARK WOOD

In the last year, England had to deal with injury issues. Senior bowlers Jofra Archer, Chris Woakes and Mark Wood were out of the T20 team for over a year due to injuries. With Archer still injured, the good news is that Woakes and Wood have returned to the side after almost a year. The duo last played for England against New Zealand in the previous year's World Cup semi-final.
