Lancashire paceman Sajid Mahmood eyed a Test return after being recalled to the England one-day squad for November's five-match series in South Africa.

"I'm absolutely delighted with the news," the 27-year-old said. "I've never given up on my England ambitions.

"I've worked hard on my game and believe I'm bowling better than ever.

"I hope to do enough in the first games to be picked in the starting XI and then you never know what the future holds in terms of a Test recall."
