Surrey
fast bowler Chris Tremlett was on Tuesday named in England’s 30-man
squad for the mid-year international season. The 31-year-old has not
played a Test match since January 2012 due to a long-standing back
problem and last featured in a first-class match in July last year.
But he has been handed an opportunity to prove he is fit enough for the rigours of international cricket, having played an important role in England’s 2010-11 Ashes success in Australia.
There was no place for Nottinghamshire batsman James Taylor, however, despite gritty performances in the two Tests against South Africa last year.
He did not feature in either of the two most recent Test series and was the captain of the England Lions side routed 4-0 by Australia A in their one-day international series earlier this year.
