T20 World Cup: Batting all-rounder Alice Capsey and left-arm spinner Tilly Corteen‑Coleman are in line for their maiden Test appearances after being named in England’s 15‑member squad for the historic one-off clash against India, to be played at Lord’s from July 10-13.
Crucially, the one-off Test match will take place five days after the Women’s T20 World Cup final is staged at Lord’s. Apart from the duo currently participating in the mega event, Mady Villiers will also hope to make her Test debut, while the Lancashire duo of pacer Grace Potts and wicketkeeper-batter Ellie Threlkeld could earn their first international cap in any format for England.
Batter Emma Lamb and fast bowler Issy Wong have also been included after not being a part of England’s most recent Test against Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in January last year, while Charlie Dean misses out.
