STEEPLE Ashton's James Vince has been included in England's T20 squad for the forthcoming matches against Pakistan in the United Arab Emirates.

Hampshire batsman Vince, 24, was included in England's squad to face New Zealand in T20 encounters in June, as well as England's one-day team, whose match against Ireland in May was abandoned.

Vince, who went to Warminster School and played cricket for both Warminster and Chippenham, has been in impressive form for his county this season.

England will play three T20 matches against Pakistan, as well as a warm-up match against a United Arab Emirates XI in November.
