The women&#8217;s team will be led by veteran skipper Heather Knight, while a few players have been called in for the first time for a T20 World Cup.\u00a0  <!-- \/8323530\/ITv_Desktop_VDO_1X1 -->\n  <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Wicketkeeper-batter Bess Heath and all-rounder Freya Kemp are selected in a T20 World Cup squad for the first time as is Danielle Gibson who was a travelling reserve for the last edition in South Africa,&#8221; ECB wrote in a statement while naming the 15-member squad. Notably, fast-bowler Lauren Filer misses out and will join the squad for the preparation camp in Abu Dhabi.<\/p>\n<p>On selecting the squad, head coach Jon Lewis said, &#8220;Selecting teams and squads with this group of players has become incredibly tricky and tough. There are players who have been really unfortunate to miss out and they\u2019ll be a big part of what we do with England Cricket in the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I feel the 15 players selected give us a really well-balanced squad in terms of experience, youth and most importantly the skills to cope and excel in the conditions we feel we will be faced with in the UAE,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, the English board also announced its squads for the white-ball series against Ireland in September. Both the ODI and the T20I teams will be led by Kate Cross, while several World Cup faces remain absent from the Ireland trip.<\/p>\n<p><strong>England&#8217;s squad for Women&#8217;s T20 World Cup:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Heather Knight (capt), Lauren Bell, Maia Bouchier, Alice Capsey, Charlie Dean, Sophia Dunkley, Sophie Ecclestone, Danielle Gibson, Sarah Glenn, Bess Heath, Amy Jones, Freya Kemp, Nat Sciver-Brunt, Linsey Smith, Danni Wyatt<\/p>\n<p><strong>England&#8217;s squad for the ODI series against Ireland:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kate Cross (capt), Hollie Armitage, Hannah Baker, Tammy Beaumont, Georgia Davis, Lauren Filer, Bess Heath, Freya Kemp, Emma Lamb, Ryana MacDonald-Gay, Paige Scholfield, Bryony Smith, Mady Villiers, Issy Wong<\/p>\n<p><strong>England&#8217;s squad for the T20I series against Ireland:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kate Cross (capt), Georgia Adams, Hollie Armitage, Hannah Baker, Tammy Beaumont, Mahika Gaur, Ryana MacDonald-Gay, Charis Pavely, Paige Scholfield, Seren Smale, Bryony Smith, Mady Villiers, Issy Wong<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async>\nfunction loadFacebookScript(){\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '529056027274737');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n}\nwindow.addEventListener('load', (event) => {\n\tsetTimeout(function(){\n        loadFacebookScript();\n\t}, 5000);\n});\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/sports\/cricket\/england-announce-squad-for-womens-t20-world-cup-2024-kemp-heath-called-for-first-time-2024-08-27-948979\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image Source : GETTY England cricket team players.
