New Delhi [India], July 18 (ANI): England batsman Jason Roy on Thursday expressed excitement after he found a spot in the squad that will compete against Ireland for a one-off Test, starting July 24.
Roy in a tweet said, "Let's get some red ball practice in!"

Apart from Roy, Lewis Gregory will also make a Test debut as he was named in the 13-man squad announced by the England National Cricket Selectors on Wednesday.
Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler, who displayed a brilliant form during England's maiden World Cup title, have been rested for the match. Moreover, Jofra Archer and Mark Wood also did not find a spot as both are suffering from a left side strain.
Following is the squad: Joe Root (c), Moeen Ali, Jimmy Anderson, Jonny Bairstow (wk), Stuart Broad, Rory Burns, Sam Curran, Joe Denly, Lewis Gregory, Jack Leach, Jason Roy, Olly Stone, Chris Woakes.
