John Bell said: "The final selection of positions and combinations has followed a rigorous, and very successful, programme of games against strong opposition both domestically and overseas.
It takes full advantage of the compatibilities and harmony within the team. It also maximises the opportunity for players to utilise their individual strengths and abilities to the best effect.
The final line up has the unanimous support of my Management Team, and we believe the team, as selected, will not only do England proud but also give us the very best chance of winning medals in Delhi."
