Opening batsman Alex Hales will join up with the England squad on their tour of the West Indies having recovered from a broken hand.
The 28-year-old sustained the injury during last month's tour of India and was ruled out of selection for the original squad heading to Antigua for three one-day internationals.
Hales will not be officially added to the squad yet, but he will join up with the team on Tuesday and continue his rehabilitation on tour.
"Alex Hales arrives tomorrow evening local time. He will continue his rehab with us until such time the medical and coaching teams deem he is fit enough to join the squad officially," read a statement from the ECB.
Antigua tomorrow. Can't wait to get back amongst it! 🏏
