Kent County Cricket Club spinner James Tredwell in England one-day squad to face West Indies at Headingley

Kent off-spinner James Tredwell has been called into the England squad for their third and final one-day international against West Indies at Headingley on Friday.

Tredwell replaces Graeme Swann who, with England 2-0 up in the series, has been rested by the selectors along with Stuart Broad and Tim Bresnan.

National selector Geoff Miller said: "The fact that we have already won the series means we are able to take the opportunity to rest players and take a closer look at players who are likely to feature in our limited-overs planning going forward."

It will be a sixth England ODI appearance for Tredwell, whose international chances limited have been limited by Swann's form and fitness.

Tredwell has not featured for the national side since the World Cup in March 2011, although he was a non-playing squad member on the tour of Sri Lanka earlier this year.

Swann, along with Broad and Bresnan, will return to the England squad for Sunday's one-off Twenty20 international against the Windies, where Broad will resume his role as England's Twenty20 captain.
