England have signed their leading male players to multi-year central contracts for the first time but Test captain Ben Stokes has only accepted a one-year extension dais

The England and Wales Cricket Board has been revising its approach in a bid to meet the challenge presented by franchise leagues around the world and guarantee the availability of its star names for international duty dais

Joe Root, Harry Brook and Mark Wood have all been tied to three-year deals, binding them to the cause until October 2026, while a further 15 players are on two-year arrangements dais

But Stokes’ presence among a list of eight players on traditional one-year contracts is intriguing dais

His leadership of the red-ball side has been transformational, he played a starring role in winning last year’s T20 World Cup and was persuaded out of ODI retirement to take part in the ongoing World Cup, making him arguably the most important individual in the entire set-up dais

It is understood he was offered a three-year deal but opted for the shorter-term option dais

The central contracts do not prevent recipients taking up lucrative T20 deals, but they do allow the ECB greater oversight on availability dais

Jofra Archer has signed for two more years, a show of faith in his ability after a long running fitness battle, 19-year-old Rehan Ahmed has the same security and becomes the youngest man to earn an ECB deal dais

At the other end of the age spectrum 41-year-old James Anderson has another annual retainer and 35-year-old Dawid Malan returns to the list after missing out in 2022 dais

Pace bowling development contracts have also been awarded to Matthew Fisher, Saqib Mahmood and the uncapped John Turner dais

Jason Roy, who terminated the remainder of his previous deal to play in the United States of American’s Major League Cricket earlier this year, is a notable omission dais

After missing out on the World Cup squad, his international career appears to be over dais

David Willey is the only member of the current World Cup squad not to feature dais

Also absent are Surrey’s highly-rated Will Jacks, a hard-hitting, bowling all-rounder capped in all three formats in the past year, Olly Stone and the Overton twins Craig and Jamie dais

Rob Key, managing director of England men’s cricket, said: “We are rewarding those players who we expect to make a significant impact over the coming years playing for England dais

“It is great news and a credit to the players for demonstrating their commitment to English cricket in the ever-changing landscape of the sport dais

“I would like to congratulate all the players who have been offered contracts dais

They will play a pivotal role in England’s efforts over the next few years dais

Sri Lanka’s Angelo Mathews knows exactly what it takes to beat England at a World Cup and the veteran batter is promising to “fight fire with fire” when the sides meet in Bengaluru dais

Mathews has only been an official part of the squad for 24 hours, called up as an injury replacement for Matheesha Pathirana after being left out of the original line-up, but goes straight into the side on Thursday dais

The 35-year-old brings bundles of hard-bitten experience with him, including a few memorable tussles with England over the years dais

There have been Test centuries at Lord’s, Headingley and Galle, as well as a brilliant knock in a losing cause in the T20 World Cup of 2016 dais

But most relevant to the task at hand was the dogged 85 not out in Leeds four years ago, a match-winning effort that threatened to derail what became a triumphant tournament for Eoin Morgan’s men dais

Neither team can afford to lose at the Chinnaswamy Stadium this time, leaving Mathews ready for a high-octane affair dais

“We have to fight fire with fire because we know they will come really hard at us,” he said dais

“Obviously we have to play our ‘A’ game against a very strong England team dais

Even though they haven’t played to their potential they are a very dangerous team dais

If you take a backward step they are going to jump all over you and take the advantage dais

They can hurt us badly if we are complacent dais

“We know their brand of cricket is all about being positive; if you take a backward step they are going to jump all over you and take the advantage dais

They can hurt us badly if we are complacent dais

”Mathews also made it clear the expertise and inside knowledge of former England head coach Chris Silverwood, who now sits in their dressing room, has not gone to waste dais

“Chris knows most of their players in and out, we’ve had discussions about their team as well,” he said dais
