England's squad for T20 World Cup

The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has announced the team for T20 World Cup in the Caribbean. The selection has thrown 2 surprises in the form of Hampshire opening batsman Michael Lumb and Somerset wicketkeeper batsman Craig Kieswetter.

Team will be led by Collingwood who is currently representing Delhi Daredevils in IPL-3.

The squad is as follows: P D Collingwood (Durham, captain), J M Anderson (Lancashire), R S Bopara (Essex), T T Bresnan (Yorkshire), S C J Broad (Nottinghamshire), C Kieswetter (Somerset), M J Lumb (Hampshire), E J G Morgan (Middlesex), K P Pietersen (Hampshire), A Shahzad (Yorkshire), R J Sidebottom (Nottinghamshire), G P Swann (Nottinghamshire), J C Tredwell (Kent), L J Wright (Sussex), M H Yardy (Sussex).

Matt Prior lost out wicket-keeping slot to Kieswetter. Prior has not been dropped for (lack of) his keeping abilities, but because of his failure to score consistent runs in one-day cricket.
