Jacob Bethell, the all-rounder from Warwickshire, has been named in England's Test squad for their upcoming tour of New Zealand, marking his first call-up to the Test team. The England Men’s selection panel has announced a 16-player squad for the three-match Test series, which is set to take place in November and December. The squad features one notable change from the recent series in Pakistan, with Bethell stepping in for wicketkeeper-batter Jamie Smith, who will miss the tour. This selection highlights Bethell's rising profile in the cricketing world as he prepares to make his Test debut.
