Greg Rutherford is a surprise inclusion in the Great Britain and Northern Ireland team for the upcoming European Indoor Championships in Prague.

Long jumper Greg Rutherford has been named in the Great Britain and Northern Ireland team for the upcoming European Indoor Championships in Prague.

The Olympic, European and Commonwealth gold medallist recently claimed that he would not be taking part in the competition.

Rutherford won the British Indoor Championships in Birmingham on Saturday with a personal-best indoor jump of 8.17m.

Meanwhile, the likes of Katarina Johnson-Thompson, Richard Kilty and Jenny Meadows have also been included in the squad that is due to travel to the Czech Republic at the start of next month.

"The team has a good blend of established championship performers such as Greg Rutherford and Jenny Meadows, and in other areas it is very much developmental giving up and coming athletes the opportunity to perform on this stage," said British Athletics performance director Roger Black.

"I'm looking forward to seeing how the team performs as we focus on long term development towards 2016 and 2017 through to 2020."

The 2015 European Indoor Championships get underway in Prague on March 6.
