England captain Jos Buttler stated that England has not announced the final 15-man squad for World Cup 2023 and the selection committee is trying to be loyal to players like Jason Roy who is currently struggling with fitness issues.

England and New Zealand recently concluded their ODI series, winning it 3-1. Batter Jason Roy, who scored 443 runs in eight matches during the 2019 World Cup campaign is uncertain for the tournament as he is battling back spasms, which kept him out of the series against Kiwis. In the series, his replacement Dawid Malan made the most of his opportunities, scoring a 'Player of the Series' award-winning 277 runs in three matches with a century and two fifties.
