Gary Cahill will captain England in their friendly match against Germany at the Olympiastadion on Saturday.
Cahill, who was named as England's vice-captain following the disappointing 2014 World Cup campaign, will skipper Roy Hodgson's side in Berlin in the absence of Wayne Rooney.
England captain Rooney will miss the friendlies with Germany and the Netherlands as he continues his rehabilitation from a knee injury suffered in February.
Cahill previously captained England in their 2-0 European Championships qualifying victory over Estonia last October.
It will be the first time England have played Germany since their 1-0 home defeat to Joachim Low's side in 2013, when Arsenal defender Per Mertesacker scored the only goal of the game.
