England have named a 14-man squad for the second npower Test Match against Sri Lanka at Edgbaston from May 30-June 3.

The uncapped Glamorgan quick bowler Simon Jones, who attended the ECB's National Academy in Australia last winter, is added to the 13 players called up for the first npower Test.

Jones, 23, is the son of former Glamorgan and England pace bowler, Jeff. Excluding Glamorgan's current match against Sri Lanka, he has taken 13 wickets in first-class cricket this season at a cost of 21.38 including a career-best six for 45 against Derbyshire.

Commenting on the selection, Chairman of Selectors, David Graveney, said: "The Lord's Test showed that Sri Lanka have a very talented batting line-up and if we continue to play on bland surfaces that favour the batsmen, we need to have other options available in our bowling attack.

"The two quickest English bowlers in county cricket at present are Simon Jones and Stephen Harmison of Durham. We did not consider Stephen for this Test match due to injury, but we feel that this is a good opportunity for Simon Jones.

"Simon is young and raw, but he has an outstanding natural asset in his speed. And we feel that we would like to have him at our disposal until we have had a chance to look at the pitch and assess how it will play.

"We have decided to call-up 14 players for this Test match as we need additional cover due to Dominic Cork's groin injury. But with a full Frizzell County Championship programme starting on Friday, there is a likelihood that any players left out of the final eleven will have the opportunity to play in the next round of Championship fixtures."

The full squad is: Nasser Hussain (captain) (Essex), Mark Butcher (Surrey), Andrew Caddick (Somerset), Dominic Cork (Derbyshire), John Crawley (Hampshire),Andrew Flintoff (Lancashire), Ashley Giles (Warwickshire), Matthew Hoggard (Yorkshire), Simon Jones (Glamorgan), Alec Stewart (Surrey), Graham Thorpe (Surrey), Marcus Trescothick (Somerset), Alex Tudor (Surrey), Michael Vaughan (Yorkshire).
