Graeme Swann looks likely to return to England's team for today's ICC Champions Trophy clash with Sri Lanka at The Oval.

England spinner Graeme Swann has been passed fit for today's ICC Champions Trophy clash with Sri Lanka at The Oval.

The 34-year-old missed the 48-run victory over Australia after sustaining a back injury during training.

"Swanny is fit," skipper Alastair Cook told reporters. "His injury was a strange one.

"He must have jarred his back in training and woke up with a stiff back the next day. That can happen but at the moment he is back and available for selection."

Swann's return to fitness looks like bad news for Kent off-breaker James Tredwell, who stepped in for the Nottinghamshire man at Edgbaston.
