Buck made a big impact at Grace Road last season
|
ECB performance director David Parsons says Leicestershire seamer Nathan Buck deserves his England Lions call-up. The squad left for the tour to the West Indies on Monday with Buck replacing Steven Finn who has stayed with the senior side in Australia. Buck, 19, will play in the warm-up games and two competitive matches and will then be replaced by Chris Woakes. Parsons said: "Nathan had an excellent summer, taking 49 County Championship wickets in his first full season." Buck enjoyed a promising season with the Foxes last year and was sent on a strength and conditioning regime at the ECB's National Performance Centre in Loughborough. Parsons added: "The Lions tour will provide him with an excellent opportunity to further demonstrate his potential."
