England manager Fabio Capello has named midfielder Gareth Barry as captain for the friendly against Ghana at Wembley tomorrow.
The 30-year-old Barry will lead a much-changed side from the one that beat Wales 2-0 in a Euro 2012 qualifier on Saturday.
John Terry skippered England to victory in Cardiff but is one of five players rested by Capello, who will play Andy Carroll from the start.
Michael Dawson, Frank Lampard, Ashley Cole and Wayne Rooney have also been released back to their clubs.
Capello says he will make "about seven changes" for the game against World Cup quarter-finalists Ghana.
He says Joe Hart will play in goal, Gary Cahill and Phil Jagielka at centre-back and Leighton Baines will play at left back.
