Michael Carberry

Michael Carberry, who played the last of his six Tests in 2014, consulted a specialist on Tuesday after sitting out this week's county championship game against Warwickshire because he was feeling unwell

Tim Bresnan and Michael Carberry return to face Sri Lanka in ODI series starting May 22.

After Mitchell Johnson's destructive seven for 40 helped Australia skittle the Ashes holders for 172, the hosts rode on David Warner's 83 not out to take 530-run lead.

The young Yorkshireman is expected to be named at number six for England in Thursday's first Test at Brisbane's Gabba after opener Michael Carberry's fine start to their Australian tour.

The England openers batted through the entire opening day on Wednesday, reaching stumps at 318 without loss, with skipper Alastair Cook on 154 and Michael Carberry not out 153.

Carberry, who had already dropped two catches and conceded 12 runs in his only over with the ball, was dismissed in the fourth over for 10 to complete an unhappy day when he was consistently barracked by the huge home crowd, after his fumbles in the field.

Former Ireland batsman turned England captain Eoin Morgan (124 not out) and Ravi Bopara (101 not out) starred for the visitors with a one-day international fifth-wicket record partnership of 226 after their side had collapsed to 48 for four chasing 270 for victory.

The all-rounder believes there will be plenty of banter during the Twenty20 and ODI series between England and Australia.

The 32-year-old left-handed opener was the only uncapped Twenty20 player in England's squad for two matches against Australia at the end of this month.

England Lions crushed West Indies by 10 wickets on Sunday, dealing a further blow to the brittle confidence of the tourists ahead of the first Test which starts at Lord's on Thursday.

After snatching a thrilling tie against favourites India, a rampaging England will look to mow down minnows Ireland and pocket the crucial two points when they meet in a group B match of the cricket World Cup on Wednesday.
