No Strauss in the squad, as he is "suited to Test and ODI cricket".
Full England T20 squad:
Kabir Ali (Worcestershire), James Anderson (Lancashire), Gareth Batty (Worcestershire), Ian Bell (Warwickshire), Ravi Bopara (Essex), Tim Bresnan (Yorkshire), Stuart Broad (Nottinghamshire), Paul Collingwood (Durham), Steve Davies (wk, Worcestershire), Joe Denly (Kent), James Foster (wk, Essex), Andrew Flintoff (Lancashire), Steve Harmison (Durham), Rob Key (Kent), Sajid Mahmood (Lancashire), Dimitri Mascarenhas (Hampshire), Eoin Morgan (Middlesex), Graham Napier (Essex), Samit Patel (Nottinghamshire), Kevin Pietersen (Hampshire), Liam Plunkett (Durham), Matt Prior (wk, Sussex), Adil Rashid (Yorkshire), Owais Shah (Middlesex), Ryan Sidebottom (Nottinghamshire), Graeme Swann (Nottinghamshire), Chris Tremlett (Hampshire), Shaun Udal (Middlesex), Chris Woakes (Warwickshire), Luke Wright (Sussex).
Robert Key is the bookies favourite to be given the captaincy.

Seems a very odd time to pick a squad for a competition that doesnt start til June...they could have waited 2 weeks to see who starts the season in form couldnt they??
Good to see some of the new names in there - Denly mainly, Foster (about bl00dy time), Key, Bresnan, Kabir Ali (overdue return Id say)
On the other hand is Ian Bell really a better option than Strauss?? And picking Strauss would have done away with any kind of captaincy issue...

I'm guessing here, but I would have thought that the ICC has said all countries need to name a prelimenary squad, which will be cut down in due course. I know they've done that for previous tournaments.

That's correct. The squad will be cut down to 15.
