England selectors today announced a 12-man squad for the First Investec Test against Pakistan at Lord’s.

Middlesex seamer Toby Roland-Jones has been called up to the squad for the first time. The 28-year-old England Lions player has been in tremendous form for his county this season where he has taken 30 Specsavers County Championship wickets in nine matches at 29.07.

Yorkshire batsman Gary Ballance has been recalled to the squad. The 26-year-old last played for England at this level a year ago against Australia at Lord’s. Earlier this week, Ballance scored a superb 132 in the first innings against Middlesex at Scarborough.

Lancashire seamer James Anderson will miss out having not recovered from his right shoulder injury sustained in the third Test against Sri Lanka earlier this month.
