England head coach Peter Moores has named a new-look squad for the first Test against Sri Lanka, with three uncapped players entering the fold.

Sam Robson, Chris Jordan and Moeen Ali have been named in the side for the opening Test on June 12, while Matt Prior has returned as wicketkeeper after being dropped for the final two Ashes Tests in Australia.

Yorkshire's Liam Plunkett also joins the 12-man squad after seven years away from the Test side, while all-rounder Ben Stokes has failed to secure a place in Moores's first Test side since returning as coach.

James Anderson, Stuart Broad, Joe Root, Gary Ballance and Chris Woakes have also been included in the team, which will be led by captain Alastair Cook.

England squad: Alastair Cook (Essex), Moeen Ali (Worcestershire), James Anderson (Lancashire), Gary Ballance (Yorkshire), Ian Bell (Warwickshire), Stuart Broad (Nottinghamshire), Chris Jordan (Sussex), Liam Plunkett (Yorkshire), Matt Prior (Sussex), Sam Robson (Middlesex), Joe Root (Yorkshire), Chris Woakes (Warwickshire)
