Southern Vipers Selected For England Test And 'A' Squads
Southern Vipers Selected For England Test And 'A' Squads
Off spinner Charlie Dean and fast bowler Lauren Bell have both been included in England's squad for their one-off Test match against South Africa, whilst six Vipers are included in the England-A squad
Charlie Dean and Lauren Bell have been named in England's 13-player squad to face South Africa in their LV= Insurance Test match from 27th-30th June.
The Test match forms the first part of the multi-format series, with four points available for the game and two points available for each white-ball game.
Georgia Elwiss, Maia Bouchier, Freya Kemp, Ella McCaughan, Tara Norris, and Danni Wyatt have all been included in the England-A squad which play South Africa in a three-day match starting on 21st June at Arundel, and the side will be captained by Georgia Elwiss.
There are a number of new faces in the squad which brings a real level of energy and enthusiasm. We're at the beginning of a new ICC Women's Championship cycle, which starts for us with the India ODIs, and it's natural that we're looking forward with one eye on who may be a key player for us come 2025. Similarly with Katherine Brunt retired from Test cricket and Anya Shrubsole from all forms of the international game, a number of bowling spots have opened up which is hugely exciting for those players.

I'm sure they'll all be very keen to grab their opportunity. We have to balance having the appropriate back-up for the senior squad while also giving playing opportunities. We need our players to play as much cricket as possible, which is why we have a deliberately small Test squad while the England Women's A team are in action against South Africa. It really is a massive summer, with the Commonwealth Games just around the corner, and we can't wait to get started with the red ball in Taunton.
