Captain Eoin Morgan says players from outside England's Twenty20 side can use the one-day series against India to push their case to be at the World Cup.

England will be without one-day regulars Joe Root, Chris Woakes and Jofra Archer for the three-match series, which begins on Tuesday.

T20 stars Dawid Malan and Chris Jordan are only reserves to the one-day squad.

"We see the 50-over format between the two T20 World Cups as a building block for our squad," said Morgan.

"Given the squads are very similar, we see both skill sets as very valuable.

There is much in common b/w the two formats so do not se issues if someone, esp. playing attacking cricket whether with bat and ball, makes a case for a place ... I have not seen Eng squad in detail but I guess there would be some talented cricketers who could push the incumbents

England will play these ODIs like T20s

Bowling 4 overs vs 10 overs is a huge difference though. 

 

A good T20 player should do well in odi. But then how come West Indies struggle in the longer format?

Here Eng is using ODIs though ... As for WI, I haven’t followed much of their cricket lately so am not aware if they are playing their full strength team in each format/series

Half of the Windies t20 players are busy minting money playing in all t20 leagues and buying villas in st lucia. So naturally they are reluctant to play odi s and often are not part of the selection pool. Andre Russell Narine etc .. hence the windies have separate teams for all three formats..

Morgan should think of performing himself. He was mediocre throughout the T20 series.

We on the other hand will use it to get captain's buddies Dhawan and Chahal back into the t20 XI

Yes because he'll use it to justify Dhawan's inclusion
