Ollie Robinson has taken a team-leading 50 first-class wickets for Sussex since the start of last summer
Bowler Ollie Robinson has been in contact with both England head coach Brendon McCullum and managing director Rob Key as he eyes a recall to the Test side.
The 32-year-old earned 20 Test caps between June 2021 and February 2024, taking an impressive 76 wickets at 22.92, but saw his time in an England shirt plagued by concerns over his fitness, including untimely back spasms against Australia in 2021-22 and India two years later.
His relationship with McCullum and captain Ben Stokes deteriorated following the latter series and he lost his central contract in October 2024.
Robinson, who took 39 wickets at 24.74 in 10 matches for Sussex in 2025, has taken 11 wickets at 28.54 from 104 overs this summer as well as scoring an unbeaten 100 as part of a memorable ninth-wicket stand with Jack Carson against Surrey – his second first-class century.
