London: Uncapped trio Charlie Austin, Jamie Vardy and Tom Heaton were on Thursday named in England's squad for next month's friendly in Ireland and 2016 European Championship qualifier away to Slovenia.

"For Jamie Vardy and Charlie Austin, it's a good opportunity for them to show us what they can do," England manager Roy Hodgson told a press conference at Wembley Stadium.
