​All-rounder Andrews, a former Peterborough Town player who now turns out for Market Deeping CC, has been named in a 15-man England Over 70s squad to tackle Australia in three Test matches at Colchester (August 6), Telford (August 13) and Maidenhead (August 20).

The series is branded as the ‘Silver Ashes’ and Andrews was part of a victorious England squad Down Under last winter as England bagged a 2-1 win.
