Let us know that Jose Butler is the vice-captain of the team in the presence of Eoin Morgan, but wicketkeeper batsman Jose Butler is currently playing a three-match Test series against the West Indies, due to which he will not be part of this team. In such a situation, the England Cricket Board has appointed Moin Ali as the vice-captain. None of the players of the Test team will play in the ODI team because both the series are being held in the Bio-Secure Protocol.

Left-handed batsman Moin Ali played his last ODI during the World Cup 2019, which was his 100th match. After this, he was dropped from the team due to poor form, but he again got a place in the team during the tour of South Africa and he also won the match for the team. Now he has to play in the three ODI series against the Ireland team on 30 July, 1 August, and 4 August.
