Gloucestershire coach John Bracewell has expressed his anger over the announcement of the latest England one-day international squad.

Not one Gloucestershire player has been selected, even though they are the undisputed kings of domestic limited overs cricket with five trophies in the last two seasons.

Bracewell is so incensed by what he considers the latest snub that he has asked the club statistician to draw up figures supporting the case for international selection of the likes of Mark Alleyne, Jon Lewis and Matt Windows.

And he says Gloucestershire will issue a club statement, based on those figures, tomorrow morning.

Today Bracewell said: "I'm furious. I expected Mark and Jon to be in the England squad and thought Matt had a good chance of selection too. "The fact that none of them got in is a disgrace. They took it in a very mature and philosophical way when I broke the news to them, but of course they are disappointed.

"Players from other counties seem to walk into the England set-up, yet we are consistently ignored. A growing myth is being perpetuated that we are only successful at home because of the pitches we prepare at Bristol, which is absolute nonsense.

"Before I say any more I want the figures, which I know will back me up. We encourage all our players to have the ambition to play for England and when they are continually knocked back in reflects poorly on our club."
