Jones and Ali miss England calls

Worcestershire will have Kabir Ali and Simon Jones available for their County Championship game with Gloucestershire, which starts on Wednesday.

Both had been touted for an England Test recall but neither got the nod.

Jones was rested for Worcestershire's win over Middlesex at Lord's and director of cricket Steve Rhodes said the result vindicated that decision.

"He had a full bowl in the game before, now he's fresh and ready to go," Rhodes told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

Worcestershire's game against Gloucestershire will be played at Cheltenham.

There will be full ball-by-ball commentary on the game on BBC Hereford and Worcester on 738am and online at bbc.co.uk/herefordandworcester
