Hampshire’s Pre-Season Calendar Confirmed
Hampshire’s men and women will be going on tour in March with trips to Stellenbosch and Desert Springs, and five warm up matches
England have named a squad of 15 for the Royal London ODI series against New Zealand, with Hampshire and Southern Vipers' seamer Katie George earning a first 50-over call-up after impressing in the Vitality IT20 Tri-Series.
Fellow Vipers Tammy Beaumond and Danni Wyatt also remain, but off-spinner Dani Hazell misses out from the squad that beat South Africa 2-1 earlier this summer but otherwise the majority of the squad is unchanged, with George again included.
I've been pleased with how we've played this summer, in both 50-over and IT20 cricket. We've got a bit of competition for places, which is healthy, and as such we've got a group of players pushing each other to improve all the time.
Mark Robinson, England Women Head Coach
It's good to have Alex Hartley back with the group and Katie George has had a promising start to her career at this level and we look forward to taking on New Zealand.
George has played five IT20 fixtures for England Women so far, claiming two wickets from her 12 overs.
The 19-year-old was handed a full England debut in March as Heather Knight's side claimed a comfortable eight-wicket win over Australia in their IT20 series opener.
Full squad: Heather Knight (captain, Berkshire), Tammy Beaumont (Kent), Katherine Brunt (Yorkshire), Sophie Ecclestone (Lancashire), Georgia Elwiss (Sussex), Katie George (Hampshire), Jenny Gunn (Warwickshire), Alex Hartley (Lancashire), Amy Jones (wicketkeeper, Warwickshire), Laura Marsh (Kent), Anya Shrubsole (Somerset), Nat Sciver (Surrey), Sarah Taylor (wicketkeeper, Sussex), Lauren Winfield (Yorkshire), Danni Wyatt (Sussex).
