The standard is going to be through the roof, and I just know that people who\u2019ve never watched disability cricket before are going to love what they see.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m delighted to be able to confirm Callum as the captain of this side, as well. He\u2019s a terrific leader, he\u2019s someone who commands respect and it\u2019ll be special for him and all his teammates to walk out together as the first England Men\u2019s Mixed Disability side.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m hoping that the cricket on show in this series demonstrates what a huge moment of progress this could be for disability cricket and disability sport in general, and I hope it helps more people across the world access our game.\u201d<\/p>\n Mixed Disability Vitality IT20 Series<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n Saturday 21 June:<\/strong> 1st Mixed Disability Vitality IT20: England Men\u2019s Mixed Disability v India Men\u2019s Mixed Disability, Taunton, 6.30pm<\/p>\n Monday 23 June:<\/strong> 2nd Mixed Disability Vitality IT20: England Men\u2019s Mixed Disability v India Men\u2019s Mixed Disability, Wormsley, 5pm<\/p>\n Wednesday 25 June:<\/strong> 3rd Mixed Disability Vitality IT20: England Men\u2019s Mixed Disability v India Men\u2019s Mixed Disability, Lord’s, 3.30pm<\/p>\n Friday 27 June:<\/strong> 4th Mixed Disability Vitality IT20: England Men\u2019s Mixed Disability v India Men\u2019s Mixed Disability, Worcester, 5pm<\/p>\n Sunday 29 June:<\/strong> 5th Mixed Disability Vitality IT20: England Men\u2019s Mixed Disability v India Men\u2019s Mixed Disability, Worcester, 2.30pm<\/p>\n Thursday 1 July:<\/strong> 6th Mixed Disability Vitality IT20: England Men\u2019s Mixed Disability v India Men\u2019s Mixed Disability, Bristol, 2pm<\/p>\n Tuesday 3 July:<\/strong> 7th Mixed Disability Vitality IT20: England Men\u2019s Mixed Disability v India Men\u2019s Mixed Disability, Bristol, 6.30pm<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"England Men\u2019s Mixed Disability team have named their squad for the historic series against India.
