Salt is one of three England white-ball regulars who will miss the series, along with Jacob Bethell (knee) and Sam Curran (groin). Bethell is also expected to miss October’s tri-series in Pakistan with a cartilage injury that has ruled him out since July, while Curran had surgery last month after captaining MI London in the Hundred.

“Aneurin Donald and Henry Crocombe are two promising players who have earned their places on the back of impressive performances in domestic cricket,” North said. “Aneurin has had an exceptional season for Derbyshire in the Vitality Blast and also with Trent Rockets in the Hundred while Henry is a player we have had an eye on all summer.”

Glamorgan are on an upward trajectory after paying down their substantial debts over the past decade. They won the One-Day Cup in both 2021 and 2024, and despite an innings defeat to Somerset this week, they should avoid relegation in their first season back in Division One of the County Championship since 2005.

Bethell’s absence from the ODI squad leaves England looking for yet another opening partner for Duckett in 50-over cricket, having already cycled through Salt, Jamie Smith, Zak Crawley and Rehan since the start of last year. Banton, Cox and Jacks are the obvious candidates.

England won 4-0 in their T20I series against India earlier this summer to briefly move past them and go top of the ICC’s rankings, and won the ODI series 2-1. They beat Sri Lanka in both white-ball formats earlier this year away from home.

Sri Lanka picked their squads for the series earlier this week, with Charith Asalanka named vice-captain. The first T20I in Southampton starts 48 hours after the scheduled finish of next week’s third Test against Pakistan, though England have named seven players in both squads.
