Mason Crane could feature for England in the Pakistan one-day international tri-series for the first time in eight years, according to reports. The three-nation series in Pakistan will feature England, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka as participants.
Marcus North stated that Mason Crane has shown consistent performance for Glamorgan across both formats throughout the summer. North further suggested that Crane, an experienced and high-class leg-spinner, merits another chance at the international level.
