England vs South Africa: Sonny Baker named in squad for first ODI

Fast bowler Sonny Baker will make his England debut in the first one-day international against South Africa at Headingley on Tuesday.

The 22-year-old has impressed in The Hundred for Manchester Originals and could be part of the squad for the Ashes tour of Australia later this year.

It is the latest step in a rapid rise for Hampshire’s Baker, who made his first-class debut for England Lions against Australia A in Sydney at the beginning of this year.

Fellow quicks Jofra Archer and Brydon Carse are both included after missing the final Test against India in July. For Archer, it will be his first one-day international since the Champions Trophy in March.

The match in Leeds begins a three-match series against the Proteas, which is followed by three T20s.
