Seamer Josh Hull, 20, who played one Test against Sri Lanka last summer, also makes the group, as does all-rounder Dan Mousley, who made his limited-overs debuts against the West Indies in the autumn.

However, fast bowler Jofra Archer has not been selected after injuring his thumb at the Indian Premier League.

“This series is a huge opportunity for an exciting and highly talented group of players,” said ECB performance director for men’s cricket Ed Barney.

“It will provide an opportunity both individually and collectively to excel on the international stage as we continue to succession plan for England’s future needs.”

The two four-day matches with India A, at Canterbury and Northampton, precede India’s five-Test tour of England that starts on 20 June.

National team openers Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal are among a number of capped players in a strong India A line-up.
