England name unchanged squad for fourth Test

BIRMINGHAM: England named an unchanged 13-man squad on Sunday for the fourth and final Test against Pakistan at The Oval next week after taking a 2-1 series lead at Edgbaston.

In addition to the XI that won the third Test by 141 runs at Edgbaston on Sunday, England also kept Nottinghamshire paceman Jake Ball and Yorkshire leg-spinner Adil Rashid in the squad.

They could also bring in an as yet unnamed batsman after James Vince suffered an injury to the fourth or ring finger of his left hand while fielding in the slips on Sunday.

Hampshire captain Vince was taken to hospital for a scan to assess the extent of his injury.

The fourth Test starts at The Oval in south London on Thursday.

Squad: Alastair Cook (capt), Alex Hales, Joe Root, James Vince, Gary Ballance, Jonny Bairstow (wkt), Moeen Ali, Chris Woakes, Stuart Broad, Steven Finn, James Anderson, Jake Ball, Adil Rashid
