Roy misses out due to injury and is replaced by the talented Brook
, won the argument despite a disappointing one-day series against New Zealand when he scored just 37 runs from 68 balls across three innings.
Yet the 24-year-old’s quality and potential were evident in the recent T20 series against New Zealand,following innings of 43 not out from 27 balls and 67 from 36 in the opening two games at Durham and Manchester. And given Roy has only ever opened in his 110 ODI appearances, Brook’s versatility and ability to bat anywhere in the top six gave him the clear edge when it came to selection for the tournament that begins with England taking on New Zealand at Ahmedabad on 5 October.England men’s national selector, Luke Wright, said: “We have selected a squad we are confident can go to India and win the World Cup.
“The strength of the group has meant that we have had to make some tough decisions on world-class players with Jason Roy missing out and Harry Brook coming into the squad.”
