The England Cricket Board (ECB) has picked a 15-person team for the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023, which will be held in India from October 5 to November 19. The team was chosen by paying close attention to how the players did in their four One Day International (ODI) matches, which the home team won 3-1.
