Kent opener Joe Denly has missed out on a place in the England one-day squad for their five-game series against West Indies, starting in Guyana on March 20.

The 22-year-old, who was selected for the cancelled England Performance Programme tour of India, was widely tipped to be included after his exploits during the county season where he averaged 30 runs in both the County Championship and Pro40 competitions, 34.9 runs in the Twenty20 Cup and 44.33 in 10 Friends Provident Trophy matches.

Denly and Kent team-mate Amjad Khan have been included in the 14-man England Performance squad, for the trip to New Zealand, captained by Kent skipper Robert Key.

They will play two Test matches, two one day games and a Twenty 20 match against New Zealand A.

One day squad (v West Indies): Kevin Pietersen (capt), James Anderson, Ian Bell, Ravi Bopara, Stuart Broad, Paul Collingwood, Steven Davies (wk), Andrew Flintoff, Steve Harmison, Dmitri Mascarenhas, Samit Patel, Matt Prior (wk), Owais Shah, Graeme Swann, Ryan Sidebottom.

England Lions squad to tour New Zealand: Robert Key (Kent, capt), Gareth Batty (Worcestershire), Ravi Bopara (Essex), Mark Davies (Durham), Steven Davies (Worcestershire), Joe Denly (Kent), Amjad Khan (Kent), Sajid Mahmood (Lancashire), Stephen Moore (Worcestershire), Eoin Morgan (Middlesex), Samit Patel (Nottinghamshire), Liam Plunkett (Durham), Jonathan Trott (Warwickshire), Luke Wright (Sussex).
