Ahmed named in Lions squad after Ashes omission

Rehan Ahmed

The 21-year-old Leicester-shire all-rounder was in fine form in the 2025 County Championship, scoring 760 runs including five centuries and taking 23 wickets, and had been tipped by many to make the senior squad for the Ashes.

Ahmed is one of four Test-capped players in the Lions group alongside Matthew Fisher, Tom Hartley and Josh Hull, while Sonny Baker and Jordan Cox have both also been capped in limited-overs internationals.
