The omission of Craig White is the only change to the 13-man squad named for
the last Test at Lord's. The Yorkshire all-rounder has been advised by doctors to rest for seven days after being taken ill in Scarborough last week.
Announcing the squad, Chairman of Selectors, David Graveney said: "All the
selectors agreed that it was a very good performance by England last time
round and the team will go into this match with their confidence high.
"We wish Craig White a speedy recovery from his illness and hope that he will be back playing cricket soon. We did not consider calling up a replacement for him as we feel that we have sufficient bowling options in the squad as it stands."
