Bowlers Steve Harmison and Stuart Broad were left out of the England team announced on Tuesday for the third Test against South Africa which starts on Wednesday.
All-rounder Paul Collingwood has been recalled while Ryan Sidebottom is back in the side after recovering from a back injury and replaces Darren Pattinson.
Harmison, who was named in the preliminary 13-man squad, was hoping for a recall after being dropped following the winter tour to New Zealand.
South Africa lead the four-match series 1-0 after the first Test was drawn and they won the second Test by 10 wickets.
Team:
Andrew Strauss, Alastair Cook, Michael Vaughan (captain), Kevin Pietersen, Ian Bell, Paul Collingwood, Andrew Flintoff, Tim Ambrose, Ryan Sidebottom, James Anderson, Monty Panesar.
