Jofra Archer's late bid for an World Cup place was rewarded when the Sussex fast bowler was named in hosts England's 15-man squad for the tournament announced on Tuesday.
Barbados-born Archer only became qualified for England in March and has played just three one-day internationals.
He edged out left-arm quick David Willey, a veteran of 46 ODIs, after both pacemen featured during England's 4-0 series win at home to Pakistan which concluded Sunday.
There was no place also in a squad, again captained by Eoin Morgan, for back-up spinner and batsman Joe Denly, with slow left-armer Liam Dawson recalled as cover for Adil Rashid, who is nursing a shoulder problem.
Both Denly and Willey were named in England's provisional squad, as was opener Alex Hales.
James Vince came in after England decided against selecting Hales following the Nottinghamshire batsman's ban for recreational drug use.
Even though Willey offered a different angle of attack as the only left-arm quick in contention, Archer's ability to bowl at 90 mph — and his variety of slower balls — has seen him get the nod.
England squad: Eoin Morgan (capt), Moeen Ali, Jofra Archer, Jonny Bairstow, Jos Buttler (wkt), Tom Curran, Liam Dawson, Liam Plunkett, Adil Rashid, Joe Root, Jason Roy, Ben Stokes, James Vince, Chris Woakes, Mark Wood.
