The hosts will open the tournament with a contest against Afghanistan, while England’s first opponents will be familiar ones in New Zealand, following their back-to-back series in 2013.
England have named three Nottinghamshire players in their squad – captain Stuart Broad alongside opening pair Alex Hales and Michael Lumb.
