Jordan replaces Finn in England T20 squad

SYDNEY, Jan 18 (AFP): Sussex seamer Chris Jordan was called into England's Twenty20 squad to play Australia Saturday following the early exit of Steven Finn.

Jordan is already in Australia with the one-day international squad where he has shown signs of promise despite England going 2-0 down in the five-match series.

Middlesex quick Finn was the only member of England's originally selected Ashes squad who didn't play an international match on a tour where his side were routed 5-0 by Australia in the Test series.

He returned home early in a bid to iron out problems with his bowling action which England limited overs coach Ashley Giles said had made him "not selectable".

Jordan's call-up for Twenty20 duty was confirmed by an England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) statement.
