England have added Warwickshire all-rounder Chris Woakes to their squad for the final two One-Day Internationals against the West Indies.

Woakes has been brought into the squad following the death of Surrey batsman Tom Maynard earlier today, the England selectors anticipating that Surrey fast bowler Jade Dernbach may be unavailable for the last two games on compassionate grounds.

England lead the series 1-0 after a comprehensive 114-run win on the Duckworth/Lewis method in the opening game at the Ageas Bowl in Southampton.

The second and third games are at The Kia Oval on 19th June and Headingley Carnegie on 22nd June.

Fast bowler Woakes has played four ODIs and three Twenty20 Internationals for his country, and in four one-day games for Warwickshire this season, has taken six wickets at 19.66, in addition to 14 first-class wickets at 19.78.
