Cricket: England give Patel Cup chance
Nottinghamshire allrounder Samit Patel offered opportunity to prove himself for World Cup.
The squad, which will be reduced to 15 names on January 19, also includes Stuart Broad, who is recovering from a torn abdominal muscle, as well as Alastair Cook, Steven Finn and Matt Prior.
Patel, who had a great summer for Nottinghamshire in one-day cricket in 2010, finished fifth in the Professional Cricketers Association’s Most Valuable Player rankings after spectacular performances in both 20 and 40-over competitions.
