Ben Duckett has been omitted from the England Lions squad for the upcoming tour of the West Indies because of his behaviour in Australia.
The Northamptonshire batsman received a final written warning over his conduct and was fined after pouring a drink over Test star James Anderson in a Perth bar while England's senior and Lions players socialised together earlier this month.
The incident took place before the third Ashes Test at the WACA Ground which England lost to surrender the series 3-0.
The 23-year-old will now miss the four-day and limited-overs series against West Indies A in February and March, with another of England's recently discarded openers, Keaton Jennings, captaining the squad.
An ECB spokesman said: "Ben Duckett has not been selected as a result of the off-field incident which led to his suspension and fine in Australia."
Meanwhile, the tour gives a chance for Lancashire opener Haseeb Hameed and Middlesex seamer Toby Roland-Jones to make their return from injury.
Hameed's hopes of returning to the top of England's order for the current Ashes tour were ended by a hand injury, while Roland-Jones was unable to travel to Australia after suffering a stress fracture to his back.
As-yet unused members of the Ashes party Mason Crane and Ben Foakes are included for the four-day series, alongside the leading wicket-taker in last season's County Championship, Jamie Porter, who pulled out of the Lions' trip to Australia with a back problem.

Both squads: Keaton Jennings (Lancashire), Joe Clarke (Worcestershire), Liam Livingstone (Lancashire), Sam Curran (Surrey), Jamie Porter (Essex), Paul Coughlin (Nottinghamshire), Saqib Mahmood (Lancashire), Nick Gubbins (Middlesex), Alex Davies (Lancashire).
