Batter ‘absolutely gutted’ following latest axingArcher travels to continue injury rehabilitation
Jason Roy is considering his international future after being dumped from an England World Cup squad at the 11th hour for the second time in a year. Roy could still appear in the World Cup should one of England’s opening batters suffer an injury – as he himself did during the T20 World Cup in 2021 – and is currently the first-choice reserve for those positions, but first he must decide how much he still wants to play for an international side that has twice dramatically discarded him.
Luke Wright, England men’s national selector, said Roy was “absolutely gutted” when informed by Jos Buttler that he had lost his place in the group of 15 that will be travelling to India later this month, but that the door for a return was still ajar.
